Abstract
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVES: To report the long-term complications of non-continent cutaneous urinary diversion (NCCUD) in adult patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). SETTING: Hospital in Paris, France. METHODS: A retrospective single center study included all adult patients with SCI who underwent an ileal conduit between 1997 and 2014. Early complications were reported according to Clavien-Dindo classification. Long-term complications and reoperation rates were recorded, as well as stoma management and autonomy improvement related to urinary function. RESULTS: One hundred and two patients were included. The surgical indications included failure of intermittent catheterization (n = 43), urethral fistulae due to skin ulcers (n = 50), renal failure (n = 8), recurrent urinary tract infections (n = 9), lithiasis (n = 3), and bladder tumors (n = 2). There were 67 early postoperative complications for 44 patients (43%) leading to an additional surgery in 15 cases: 30 grade I-II, 30 grade III, 6 grade IV, and 1 grade V. A total of 37 late complications were reported for 36 patients (35%): 17 ureteral anastomosis stenosis, 3 stoma hernia, 3 pyocystis (3/15 patients), 7 pyelonephritis, 2 renal failures, 2 ureteral lithiasis, 1 uterine prolapse, 1 incisional hernia, and 1 tumor recurrence. Renal function remained unchanged (p = 0.53). Autonomy related to urinary function was improved in 88% of patients. The correct fitting of the stoma was possible for 81% of the patients. CONCLUSIONS: Despite a perioperative morbidity rate of 43% and a late complication rate of 35%, as a last resort procedure, NCCUD is an end-stage solution in patients with SCI to preserve renal function and achieve autonomy.
