We evaluated urodynamically 14 patients with a continent ileocecal urinary reservoir. Reservoirs were constructed of detubularized right colon alone (4 patients), or augmented with ileum (2) or with a U-shaped ileal patch (8). All reservoirs were placed in the abdomen and used plicated terminal ileum as the efferent continence mechanism. Twelve patients are completely continent with intermittent catheterization at 4 to 8-hour intervals. Two patients suffer mild nighttime incontinence. Mean reservoir volume was 675 ml. Intermittent intestinal contractions were noted in the plicated ileal segment and reservoir but they occurred more frequently in the former and were either synchronous with or preceded those in the reservoir. Mean and maximal contraction pressures were 24 and 47 cm. water, respectively, in the reservoir and 40 and 151 cm. water, respectively, in the plicated ileal segment (p equals 0.043 and less than 0.001, respectively). The highest reservoir contractions occurred in the 2 patients with nocturnal incontinence. The method of construction bore no consistent correlation with mean or maximal contraction pressures, contraction frequency or continence. Careful urodynamic assessment suggests that the ileocecal urinary reservoir is a relatively low pressure, nonrefluxing and continent bladder substitute. The plicated terminal ileal segment acts as an effective sphincter that responds to pressure elevations in the reservoir. Its simple construction and easy catheterization make it an attractive alternative to intussuscepted ileal segments. |
