A novel transvesical stricturoplasty to preserve the function of an appendicular mitrofanoff, many years after an augmentation for extrophy bladder a case report

Abstract


Appendicualar mitrofanoff is the most
commonly performed continent urinary
diversion. Usually, Appendicular mitrofanoff
works well. But, this urinary diversion
is not without problems. Here, we
present a case of strictured appendicular
mitrofanoff in a patient with post operative
ileocolocystoplasty with appendicular
mitrofanoff for an exstrophy bladder on
clean intermittent catheterization. This
patient was treated with diamond shaped
strictuoplasty. After the procedure, he
was able to catheterize through the appendicular
mitrofanoff successfully.We
conclude that, in selected cases, the reconstruction
of a new conduit after excising
the redundant appendix could be
avoided.
