title: An operation to create a continent catheterizable urinary sphincter from a short intestinal segment: experimental observations.
abstract: We describe a new operation to create a continent, catheterizable urinary sphincter from a short segment of ileum. The sphincter has provided continence over a wide range of bladder pressures in dogs and it may be adapted to a variety of clinical continence requirements.
