[Biochemical complications of experimental vesico-sigmoidostomy].

Three experimental models of vesico-sigmoidostomy are studied (model-1, end to side V-S plus urethral ligation, model-2, end to end V-S, in "Y of Rous" plus urethral ligation and model-3, vesico-sigmoidoplasty), with aim of reproducing chemical imbalance observed in human subjects with ureterosigmoidostomy. Authors have evaluated clinical biochemical (serum acido-base balance, Cl, Na+, K+, BUN, creatinine, ammonia and albumin), and histologic variables in the first, third and fifth month after operation in 225 rats. Animal of model-1 presented more frequently than model-2 and model-3, alterations (hyperchloraemic acidosis, uraemia, hyperammonemia and hypoalbumin) as well as affectation of upper urinary system for acute or chronic pyelonephritis.
