title: Urinary diversion with use of ileal and sigmoid conduits.
abstract: Two hundred eighteen patients underwent urinary diversion: 156 with ileal and 62 with sigmoid conduits. There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding frequency of conduit morbidity or patient survival. The ileal conduit is preferred for urinary diversion with anterior exenteration, whereas the sigmoid conduit is preferable for urinary diversion with total exenteration.
