title: Continent urinary diversion (Gotsadze Pouch) after pelvic exenteration for gynaecological malignancies.
abstract: The problem of urinary diversion is of major importance in patients requiring pelvic exenteration for advanced gynaecological malignancies. Eight patients underwent pelvic exenteration (4-total and 4-anterior) at the Georgian Oncologic Centre, 7 of them for recurrent cervical carcinoma after combined treatment and 1--for primary advanced cervical carcinoma. The original surgical technique for construction of detubalarized ileal reservoir with continent umbilical stoma (Gotsadze Pouch) is described. Six patients underwent this type of urinary diversion with successful results. Urination is patient-controlled via self-catheterization every 5 to 6 hours. The results obtained by operation can be considered as optimal for their functional and rehabilitational properties.
