Case description

Ureterosigmoidostomy was the first widely used surgical technique for urinary diversion, providing an effective diversion that relied upon the anal sphincter for continence. However, deterioration of renal function over time, metabolic complications, and the increased risk for the development of secondary malignancies limited its usefulness. Subsequent surgical advances in reconstructive techniques have led to major improvements in both functional outcomes and quality of life.
