Abstract

In 18 gynaecological patients requiring diversion or reconstruction of the urinary tract, the relationship between the urological treatments and their influences on the renal function based on DIP were studied. Double-J catheterization and percutaneous nephrostomy drainage with Fr 8 catheter are easily obstructed due to infection of the urinary tract, so a thicker catheter should be used to maintain drainage. Ureterocutaneostomy is considered to be a suitable method to divert urine in cases of poor general condition and poor prognosis in order to preserve renal function for a longer time.
