What technique will you recommend for rein planting the ureters after radical cystectomy
Urology. 2004 Nov;64(5):940-4.
Comparison of modified Taguchi and Bricker ureteral reimplantation techniques after radical cystectomy.
Lee CT, Chen BT, Gong E, Hafez KS, Sheffield JH, Montie JE.
CONCLUSIONS: Either technique can be performed safely and in a timely fashion. However, the increased number of ureteral leaks in the modified Taguchi cohort combined with no advantage in procedure time, prompted our return to the Bricker technique exclusively.
Thanks for the reference which clearly explains the technique.
however, my case is a 6 months old and I was wandering if the young age will have different implication regarding ureteric reimplantation technique
However, I m worried that 2 layer anastomoses in 6 months old will narrow the ureter.
whats your thought of that?
