Bladder replacement using a detubularized right colonic segment was successfully performed on 22 male patients with bladder cancer after radical cystectomy. There were 10 early postoperative complications and one of them required reoperation. Urodynamic studies, performed on 16 patients, showed a low pressure reservoir at a large capacity without any involuntary spikes in every case. Of the 16 patients, 4 were nocturnally enuretic and 1 was partially continent. The other 11 patients (68.8%) were totally continent and voiding well, except one who was on intermittent self-catheterization. The incidence of urinary reservoir infections in patients treated with colon bladder replacement was investigated in 18 patients. The incidence rate of bacteriuria was 5.6% and the positive rate of pyuria was 27.8%. The detection rate of bacteriuria and pyuria was significantly low in patients after colon bladder replacement. These findings indicate that colon bladder replacement can be an ideal option for selected patients with bladder cancer.
