title: Absorption of sodium and chloride in continent reservoirs for urine: comparison of ileal and colonic reservoirs.
abstract: The absorptive capacity of urinary reservoir mucosa was studied by measuring the fractions of 22sodium and 36chloride absorbed after instillation into reservoirs constructed from an ileal or a colonic segment. The absorption of 22sodium did not differ between the 2 reservoir types but absorption of 36chloride was greater in the colonic reservoirs. The levels of chloride in serum were significantly higher in patients with a colonic than in those with an ileal reservoir. In the ileal reservoirs the absorptive capacity was greater for 22sodium than for 36chloride.
