[Circumvallate nephro-cystostomy].

Circumvallate nephro-cystostomy (CNC) provides a subcutaneous connection of a nephrostomy and a cystostomy catheter thus allowing spontaneous micturition. This procedure is suitable for those patients affected by an obstructive nephropathy where it was not possible to insert a double "J" stent or where surgical treatment was not allowed. Patients affected by debilitating disease benefit from these procedure by avoiding problems connected with daily handling of catheter, examples are medications at the insertion site or possible dislodgement of a nephrostomy catheter added to the psychological problems related to carry the urine collection bag. A number of 13 patients have been treated with this method, 5 had monolateral CNC, 8 had bilateral CNC for a total of 21 procedures. All but one cause of ureteral obstruction were neoplastic, the exception being a patient with necrosis of the ureter subsequent to major vascular surgery. CNC had a residence time ranging from 1, 5 to 25 months with an average of 9.8 months. Only in 2 cases it was necessary to remove CNC due to recurrent cystitis and orchitis due to bladder irritation by a cystostomy catheter and for an obstruction which could not be remedied in a patient with necrosis of the ureter. The most important complication, i.e. obstruction, occurred in 4 cases. In the above mentioned case CNC was removed after 9 months of proper performance. In the other 3 cases obstruction occurred after 2, 3, 18 months and in all this cases obstruction was easily removed. Besides obstruction only minor malfunctions were experienced and the procedure was very well tolerated by all patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A simple technique for closure of temporary cystostomy.

To overcome the problem of persistent urinary wound discharge after prostatectomy with temporary cystostomy, a simple suture technique is introduced. Two monofilament nylon sutures are inserted through the abdominal wall, tangentially to the dome of the bladder, together making a purse-string suture around the cystostomy. The sutures are left untied until the top catheter is removed. Then they are tied and subsequently removed along with the skin stitches. The technique has fulfilled its purpose in 19 consecutive patients without giving rise to any complications.

Prostatomembranous urethral disruptions: management by suprapubic cystostomy and delayed urethroplasty.

Management of prostatomembranous urethral disruptions associated with pelvic fractures remains a major controversy in urology. A group of 64 patients who suffered a prostatomembranous urethral disruption in association with a pelvic fracture and who were managed initially by suprapubic cystostomy with delayed urethroplasty was compared to 17 patients managed initially by primary realignment. No statistically significant difference in the incidence of impotence or urinary incontinence was found between the 2 groups (p greater than 0.5) Secondary reconstructions for impassable strictures developed in 95% of the patients treated by a suprapubic tube alone compared to 53% of those treated by primary realignment. Indeed, only 1 patient in the latter group achieved urethral continuity that did not require further intervention. We conclude that while primary realignment is associated with no increase in the instance of impotence and urinary incontinence, it subjects the patient to a major operation at a critical time and provides little in the way of long-term positive gains for the effort expended. In the final analysis the outcome is more dependent upon the nature of the injury and the quality of the repair than upon the order in which the repair is effected.

Cystostomy

Closed suprapubic cystostomy: a cost-effective method for development countries.

Acute retention of urine is a fairly common emergency problem in medical practice. Suprapubic diversion through a closed or open cystostomy is a standard procedure. In developing countries where there is paucity of skilled manpower and adequate facilities, patients' suffering may be unduly prolonged through delay. This simple cost-effective method was carried out in 15 patients without untoward morbidity. The procedure is particularly useful in rural communities where elaborate facilities are non-existent.

Evaluation of closed suprapubic cystostomy.

Closed suprapubic cystostomy is an expeditious procedure for a variety of clinical conditions requiring urinary drainage. Its benignity is reflected by a low complication rate of 1.6 per cent and no deaths in this series of 244 consecutive patients. Nevertheless, major complications can occur if proper technique is not adhered to or contraindications are not observed.

Evaluation Studies as Topic

Circle tube cystostomy drainage.

An unfavorable experience with the adaptation of the circle tube for cystostomy drainage is presented. The primary disadvantage is the dissatisfaction of patients with the presence of 2 tubes emerging from the lower abdomen.

Humans

Cystostomy drainage: its efficacy in preventing residual urine and infection.

Residual urine volume was measured in patients with cystostomy drainage by injecting phenolsulfonphthalein in saline solution through the tube. Subsequent drainage yielded an average volume of 25 ml. residual urine. The cause for the presence of residual urine and its consequences--promotion of infection--are discussed.

Percutaneous cystostomy in paraplegia--a follow-up of 41 patients.

Percutaneous cystostomy using a fine calibre (9 Charriere) plastic trocar and cannula has been used in 51 male patients in the early weeks following spinal cord injury. The results are satisfactory. Of the last ten patients none has been catheterised per urethram; eight of these patients are now passing urine satisfactorily using a condom urinal.

Total replacement of the ureter by a segment of the sigmoid colon in the treatment of giant hydronephrosis: calyco-sigmoido-cystostomy.

Two cases of giant hydronephrosis of a solitary kidney are reported. In both of them correctly performed pyelo-ureteroplasties had not assured satisfactory emptying of the pyelocalyceal system. Its dilatation and infection had not disappeared. In order to liquidate the nephrostomy, the ureters were replaced by a sigmoidal loop (calyco-sigmoido-cystostomy) with favorable results assessed 24 and 19 months after operation. The use of an isolated sigmoid segment for replacement of the ureter is discussed.

A cystostomy cannula for dogs.

A practical, durable cystostomy cannula for the collection of urine samples for prolonged periods in awake dogs with intact bladder or hemibladder has been devised. The specifications, method of implantation, complications, and results of its use in nine dogs are described.

[Effect of total biliary diversion (cholecysto-jejuno-cystostomy) on gut hormone release and pancreatic structure in dogs].

In order to elucidate the effect to total biliary diversion (TBD) on gut hormone release and pancreatic structure, we performed cholecysto-jejuno-cystostomy (CJC) in 6 mongrel dogs using a small interposed intestinal segment between the gallbladder and the urinary bladder with ligation of the common bile duct. Twelve weeks after CJC, CJC was converted into cholecysto-jejuno-duodenostomy (CJD) to normalize luminal bile flow. Fat rich meal loading tests were carried out before and after these procedures. Plasma concentrations of GI hormones (CCK, PP, GIP) were measured by radioimmunoassay and morphological changes of the pancreas were evaluated by light and electron microscopic study. CJC significantly enhanced the basal levels and fat-stimulated release of both CCK and PP, however after CJD, these changes returned to the normal levels. Following CJC, fat-stimulated GIP release was completely inhibited, but recovered after CJD. Following CJC, hypertrophy of pancreatic acinar cells with profuse and dilated rough endoplasmic reticulum was observed, while after CJD this change returned to the pre-operative state. These results suggest that a feedback regulation may exist between luminal bile flow and CCK secretion, and pancreatic hypertrophy after TBD is, at least partly, due to the increased plasma CCK levels.
