The social and psychologic sequelae after external urinary diversion are known to be fewer in patients with urinary diversion through the continent ileal reservoir (Kock pouch) compared with those with diversion through the incontinent ileal conduit. Therefore, in young female patients treated surgically with urinary diversion through the continent ileal reservoir, a number of pregnancies can be expected. We report herein the results of four pregnancies in three women with this type of reservoir. All deliveries were vaginal. One patient showed urinary obstruction at the end of the pregnancy and delivery was induced. This particular infant was treated with phototherapy because of hyperbilirubinemia; the other three infants were mature. No damage to renal function was noted and revisional surgical treatment of the reservoir was not necessary in any. Consequently, pregnancy is not contraindicated after urinary diversion through the continent ileal reservoir (Koch pouch).

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past.
