RESUMO
Augmentation and substitution erocystoplastias are currently widely accepted techniques for the treatment of several benign and malignant diseases. Appearance of neoplasia on the various gut segments used after a latency period ranging from 5 to 25 years following initial surgery has been described. The paper presents one case of metastatic colon adenocarcinoma initially located in the region of ureteral reimplantation, in a patient with augmentation cecocystoplastia performed as a result of vesical retraction secondary to genitourinary tuberculosis. Appearance of this type of neoplasia in an increasing population, quite often young, compels the urologist to keep a tight watch. Endoscopic monitoring of the new bladder is the most effective diagnostic procedure. A once-a-year endoscopy after an interval as yet not definitely established, but which could be around 10 years after initial enterocystoplastia, seems advisable at least in cases at higher risk.

OBJECTIVE: The present study analyzed the hydrodynamic behaviour of the double-J stent. METHODS: Thirty-two double-J stents of different sizes and biomaterials (16 new and 16 removed from patients) were hydrodynamically evaluated using two models: a) nephroureterocystectomy surgical blocks harvested from pigs and b) an in vitro experimental model of the upper urinary tract. The following parameters were measured: initial and final weights, encrusted material weight, inside and outside diameters, number, size and distribution of sideholes, wall thickness, drainage area and length of time the catheter was indwelling in the patient. RESULTS: Double-J stent placement in a normal upper urinary tract constitutes a partial obstruction that is proportional to the caliber of the catheter. Ureteral-flow reduction is 83%, 61% and 58% for 5FR, 6FR, and 7FR catheters, respectively. Extraluminal obstruction of the catheter reduces ureteral flow more than intraluminal obstruction (74%, 43% and 25% for extraluminal versus 83%, 66%, 57% for intraluminal for 5FR, 6FR and 7FR, respectively). Vesicoureteral and vesicorenal reflux pressures were 6.2 +/- 0.3 cm H2O and 35.2 +/- 2 cm H2O, respectively. CONCLUSION: Selection of a double-J stent must be individualized on the basis of indication, time indwelling, sex and route of insertion.

OBJECTIVES: Ureterointestinal stricture represents a serious problem whose management has traditionally been by open surgery. Endourological treatment is an alternative that is generally free from the complications of open surgery, but with a lower success rate. The efficacy of endourological treatment is analyzed in 14 cases of ureteroileal stricture (12 patients) and the different treatment options are discussed. METHODS: Ureteroileal stricture was managed endourologically in 9 of 13 cases (69%) by dilatation (6 cases), incision+dilatation (2 cases) and stenting (1 case). RESULTS: Of the 6 cases submitted to dilatation, 3 recurred at 6 months, 2 remained patent at 18 and 24 months, respectively, and 1 was lost to follow up because the patient underwent reimplantation (40% success rate). The two cases submitted to incision are patent at 18 and 19 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The overall success rate for endourological treatment of ureteroileal stricture is 28% (4/14 cases) at 19 months mean follow up.

A total of 118 allograft nephrectomies (TX) were performed after 474 renal transplants (TR) (24.9%). 49.1% of the patients were immunosuppressed with azathioprine-prednisone (AZA-PRED) and 50.9% with cyclosporine-prednisone (CSA-PRED). Mean time to TX after returning to hemodialysis was 36.2 +/- 6.4 days (0-372). Acute rejection (33.1%) was the first cause of TX, followed by chronic rejection (26.3%), vascular complications (25.5%), recurrent renal disease (5.9%), non-functioning allograft (4.2%) and not clearly established cause (1.7%). The surgical technique was extracapsular in 70.3% of the cases and subcapsular in 29.7%. The mean post-TR time to TX was significantly greater (p < 0.01) for the subcapsular technique. The mean surgical time was 106 +/- 4.4 min (45-300). Post-TX morbidity was 34%. Hemorrhage (11.2%) was the most frequent complication. The rest of the complications were infection (10.4%), neurologic (5.4%), gastrointestinal (4.5%), pulmonary (3.6%), cardiovascular (2.7%), nerve lesions (2.7%), lymphocele (0.9%) and urinary fistula (0.9%). The post-TX mortality was 6.5% (7/118), although it was significantly lower in the patients immunosuppressed with CSA-PRED (1.6%) than in those treated with AZA-PRED (10.3%).
