[Technical aspects of transileal ureterocutaneostomy].
The performance of the ileal conduit (Bricker's operation) is a well and minutely known surgical procedure (choice of a particular ileal loop; uretero-ileal anastomosis; uretero-cutaneostomy); however we can still observe several and different details in the operative technique management. The Authors, on the basis of their own experience of 55 cases, and after a complete review of the literature, emphasize the technical controversies of ileal loop urinary diversion; moreover they analyze the technic changes previously pointed out be several Authors, to avoid surgical complications. They conclude that the ileal conduit urinary diversion shall have less complication if: 1) the ileal loop is a short one, but with a very good blood supply; 2) antireflex techniques are not used; 3) Brooke's technique is used in performing uretero-cutaneostomy.
