[A case of adenocarcinoma of the reconstructed bladder following ileocystoplasty].
We experienced a case of adenocarcinoma occurring in the reconstructed bladder 38 years after ileocystoplasty. The patient was a 48-year-old woman, who had undergone ileocystoplasty and left nephrectomy at the age of 10 for the treatment of tuberculous contracted bladder and left renal tuberculosis. She had often suffered from right pyelonephritis following the operation. She visited our hospital for work-up of a high value of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The findings of cystoscopy, cystogram and urine cytology showed a malignant tumor of the reconstructed bladder. Then, we performed total cystectomy and right ureterostomy. The histopathological examination showed that the tumor was an adenocarcinoma which developed mainly from the ileal segment of the reconstructed bladder.
