Disease relevance of Urinary Reservoirs, Continent

CONCLUSIONS: Some patients with continent urinary reservoirs are at risk for vitamin B12 deficiency due to malabsorption [1].

High impact information on Urinary Reservoirs, Continent

We assessed the impact of twice daily instillations of 10 ml. liquid diphenoxylate hydrochloride and atropine sulfate (Lomotil) on the dynamics and function of continent urinary reservoirs constructed from intact cecum and ascending colon [2].
OBJECTIVE: To assess B12 and folate deficiency after continent urinary diversion via a Kock continent urinary reservoir in children and adolescents [3].
Intravenous papaverine in constructing continent urinary reservoir [4].

Anatomical context of Urinary Reservoirs, Continent

This variation in the construction of the continent urinary reservoir allows for the usage of less terminal ileum, and as a result, the risk of intractable diarrhea as well as folate and vitamin B12 malabsorption should be diminished [5].
