The current referential literature describes over 40 surgical techniques of continent urinary derivations. A variation of ureterosigmoidostomy, published by Hadzi Djokic et al. (1996) is a combination of the original Mainz pouch II (sigma rectum pouch) technique (Fish & Hohenfellner, 1991) and modified ureterointestinal anastomosis as described by Camey & LeDuc (1979) with a few new details described by the author himself. In the period 1994-2006, the total of 236 patients were treated by this method. Radical cystectomy in cases of multifocal transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder was the most common indication for this method (91,5%). In the course of follow-up (mean duration 24 months) the quality of life (QL) of these patients was evaluated by physical characteristics, mental status, social aspects and comparative evaluation of quality of life with ileal conduit which is still considered the "gold standard" for urinary derivations. A very good quality of life in all studied dimensions (3/4) patients) suggests the fact that this form of continent urinary derivation provides the patients with the fair quality of life and confirms justifiability of this surgical procedure under certain indications.
