NeoBladder Created From Your Own Intestines-No Colostomy
What is a colostomy?
A colostomy is an opening (stoma) in the large intestine (colon), or the surgical procedure that creates one. The opening is formed by drawing the healthy end of the colon through an incision in the anterior abdominal wall and suturing it into place. This opening, often in conjunction with an attached stoma appliance, provides an alternative channel for feces to leave the body. Thus if the natural anusis not available for that job (for example, in cases where it has been removed in the fight against colorectal cancer or ulcerative colitis), an artificial anus takes over. It may be reversible or irreversible, depending on the circumstances of the colon through an incision in the takes over. It may be reversible or irreversible, depending on the circumstances.
Reconstruction of Bladder
Neobladder reconstruction is a surgical procedure to construct a new bladder. After bladder removal surgery (cystectomy) for bladder cancer or another condition, your surgeon must create a new way for urine to exit your body (urinary diversion).
