A continent urinary valve by a subfascial ileal segment in dogs.
We created a new continent urinary valve in 6 dogs by placing an ileal segment between the anterior rectus sheath and rectus muscle in an antiperistaltic fashion. This ileal segment maintained urinary continence sufficiently and was readily catheterizable. Since it is easy to construct, the subfascial ileal valve will be applicable to construction of continent urinary reservoirs.
