Ureterosigmoidostomy

Ureterosigmoidostomy

Ureterosigmoidostomy is a surgical procedure performed to redirect one or both ureters (tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder) to the sigmoid colon, a part of the large intestine. This procedure is typically employed in cases where the bladder is unable to perform its normal function due to congenital anomalies, traumatic injury, or disease. During ureterosigmoidostomy, the surgeon disconnects the ureters from the bladder and attaches them to the sigmoid colon. This reroutes urine flow directly from the kidneys to the colon, allowing it to be expelled from the body during bowel movements. This method aims to bypass bladder dysfunction, providing an alternative route for urine elimination. While ureterosigmoidostomy may alleviate bladder issues, it poses potential risks and complications. The contact of urine with the colon can lead to electrolyte imbalances, infections, and metabolic disturbances. Long-term complications like recurrent urinary tract infections, kidney stone formation, and colon-related problems may also arise. Regular monitoring and follow-ups are essential post-surgery to detect and manage any complications. Although ureterosigmoidostomy can offer relief in specific cases, the procedure is considered complex and is usually reserved for situations where other treatment options have been exhausted or deemed unsuitable.
