Endo-Urological Techniques for Benign Uretero-Ileal Strictures Have Poor Efficacy and Affect Renal Function

Abstract: Introduction: Uretero-ileal strictures (UES) following urinary diversion are therapeutically challenging. We compared the efficacy, safety and renal outcome following therapeutic endo-urological techniques (EUTs) and open surgical revision of the anastomosis (SRA) for UES. Material and Methods: We retrospectively analysed all EUTs and SRAs performed for UES in 2 hospitals between 1987 and 2015. Restenosis was defined as recurrent radiographically diagnosed hydronephrosis and re-intervention. Renal function (es… Show more

“…However, they have been scarcely investigated and the results seem to be suboptimal. A recent study found 23% success rate for endourological techniques and 87% success rate for open surgical revision anastomosis at a median follow-up of 33 months (12). These results are in line with previous studies reporting success rates of 0–50% with endourological techniques (5,7,10) and 76–93% with open surgical revision (4,7,11,13).…”

“…[2][3][4][5] Kidney function loss and uretero-ileal anastomotic (UIA) stricture are possible late postoperative complications. 6 Several patient and procedural factors may influence the risk of complications following RC. For instance, patients with pre-existing medical conditions, such as cardiovascular disease or diabetes mellitus, may be at higher risk of developing complications.…”
