[The Miami pouch: a reliable continent urinary diversion after pelvic exenteration].

8

TL;DRAbstract

The Miami reservoir is a continent urinary diversion which is relatively easy to perform and reliable in terms of continence and protection of upper tract. However, a longer postoperative follow-up is required. The quality of life of young patients after pelvic exenteration is improved due to this type of contingent diversion which avoids the need for an abdominal urine collector, although it requires intermittent self-catheterization.
