Article Abstract
Introduction: We report on the surgical results of a series of 91 patients who received gastric neobladders as urinary diversion after radical cystectomies performed for the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancers.
Materials And Methods: We report on a retrospective case series of 91 patients who received gastric neobladders as urinary diversion after radical cystectomies performed for the treatment of muscle-invasive bladder cancers. Different techniques of gastric neobladders were employed from 1988 to 2013 at a university hospital in the South of Brazil.
Results: Initial outcomes utilizing Leong (Antral) and Nguyen-Mitchell (Wedge) technique were unsatisfactory, yielding high pressure, low capacity reservoirs. Further developments of these techniques, with the detubularized gastric neobladder and the "spherical" gastric neobladders resulted in low pressure, high capacity reservoirs, with better surgical and urodynamic outcomes. Complication and perioperative mortality rates of our series of gastric neobladders were significantly higher than historical results of techniques using ileum or colon.
Conclusions: Stomach is an exceptional option for the creation of neobladders after radical cystectomies, but due to the increased complication rates it should be reserved for specific situations (e.g., renal insufficiency, previous pelvic/abdominal radiotherapy, short bowel syndromes).

Background And Aims: Endoscopic therapies are currently the mainstay of treatment for GI fistulas. However, some GI fistulas are hard to treat as the result of the tissue's friability and large size defect. This case series describes a novel technique for managing hard-to-treat fistulas.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on a new surgical technique developed for bladder augmentation in children with failed bladder exstrophy, utilizing an ileocecal segment to create a catheterizable channel and preventing urine reflux.
- The surgical method involves complex reconfiguration of the ileocecal segment around the appendix, enabling effective bladder neck surgery and ureteric re-implantations when needed.
- Out of 100 children treated, 95 achieved continent status with catheterization, showing significant improvement in their urinary function post-surgery.

Background: Augmentation cystoplasty, first described by Mikulicz in 1899 involves segments of bowel, stomach or mega-ureter to increase bladder capacity in those with inadequate bladder function or lack of detrusor compliance. The most widely used bowel segment is a detubularised patch of ileum. When ileum is not suitable for augmentation, sigmoid colon is the alternative.
