Abstract
Ileal augmentation of the bladder is indicated in small poorly compliant bladder with or without refractory overactivity [1, 2]. However in patients with renal failure, with a serum creatinine greater than 2 mg/dl, use of ileum can result in worsening of acidosis and renal failure. Hence the use of a stomach flap is one of the options when a dilated ureter is not available to do ureterocystoplasty [3].
