Long-term results of gastrocystoplasty had not been reported in the literature. The results of 10 patients (7 augmentation and 3 replacement) during 15 years were reviewed. All patients voided spontaneously and achieved daytime continence. Enuresis occurred in 3 patients. Median peak flow rate and post-void residual urine were 16.0 ml. per second and 10 ml., respectively. Average cystometric capacity was 554 ml. and median pressure at full capacity was 46 cm. water. Phasic contractions resulted in pressures higher than 50 cm. water in 4 patients. Small capacity, absence of bladder sensation and high pressure were identified as risk factors for a poor result. Routine urine culture was positive in 20.5%. Urine mucus content remained low. Electrolyte disturbance, histopathological abnormalities and ulcer syndrome related to hypergastrinemia were absent. The data showed that antral gastrocystoplasty is superior because of the low infective complication rate, ability to empty and absence of metabolic disturbance.
