title: Hyponatremia, hyperkalemia and hypercalcemia after ileal conduit diversion.
abstract: In all types of urinary diversion interchange of electrolytes between blood and the urine in the lumen of the conduit may occur, resulting in electrolyte abnormalities. We describe a 67-year-old woman who developed hyponatremia, hyperkalemia and hypercalcemia following ureteroileocutaneostomy. The hyperkalemia and hypercalcemia were successfully treated with sodium polystyrene sulfonate.
