Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The use of jejunum in conduit urinary diversion may lead to electrolyte disturbances, characterized by hyponatremia, hypochloremia, hyperkalemia, acidosis, and azotemia, and a clinical picture of nausea, vomiting, dehydration, anorexia, and lethargy. Four out of six patients deviated with a jejunal loop developed this syndrome, the cause of which is discussed. It is concluded that the use of jejunum in urinary diversion should be avoided.
