title: Complications of Camey-Le Duck ureteral reimplantation technique in modified ureterosigmoidostomy (Mainz pouch II) urinary diversion.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  to analyze complications and clinical outcome of Camey-Le Duck ureteral reimplantation technique in modified Mainz pouch II urinary diversion.
  
  
  METHODS
  this retrospective study included a total of 110 patients (101 male and 9 female, mean age 59.2 years, SD = 10.2), who had underwent a modified Mainz pouch II urinary diversion with Camey-Le Duck ureteral reimplantation technique, following total cystectomy, during the period 1995-2014. The mean follow-up, available for 90 (82%) patients period was 19 (1-74) months. Early and late postoperative complications were analyzed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  early complications developed in 22 (20%) patients as follow: unilateral ureterohydronephrosis in 8 (7%) patients, bilateral ureterohydronephrosis in one (1%)-two RU (renoureteral units), urinary leakage in 8 (7%), and pyelonephritis in 5 (5%) patients. Late complications developed in 28 (25%) patients: pyelonephritis in 17 (15%), and ureteral reimplantation site stenosis in 11 (10%) patients with 12 RU. Balloon dilatation procedure was applied in all 12 RU, with additional metallic Strecker stent insertion in 5 RU. At 24-month follow-up, all patients with metallic Strecker stent had normal results of serum biochemistry, blood gas analysis and renal ultrasound. In the rest of six patients with 7RU, balloon dilatation has failed and restenosis of ureteral reimplantation site with consequent ipsilateral hydronephrosis was verified. In these patients, permanent percutaneous nephrostomy catheter was applied.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Camey-Le Duck ureteral reimplantation technique following Mainz pouch II urinary diversion is simple, reliable and durable. It enables well upper urinary tract protection and is associated with relatively low major complication rates.
