All patients with ureterosigmoidostomy exhibited electrolyte disturbance and metabolic acidosis. Patients with sigmoid conduit, rectal bladder and bladder reconstruction had unremarkable findings. The uretero-enterostomy anastomotic region was endoscopically essentially unremarkable. The control of continence was from satisfactory to good, and there was not absolute incontinence.
