Ileal loop stenosis: a late complication of urinary diversion. 1977

M E Mitchell, and I C Yoder, and R C Pfister, and J Daly, and A Althausen

Stenosis of the ileal conduit was a late complication in 12 patients (10 adults) who underwent urinary diversion by this means at our hospital. The duration of the ileal loop at diagnosis ranged from 4 to 14 years, averaging 9 years. Loop stenosis was generally without symptoms and was suggested only by routine excretory urography, while loopography confirmed the diagnosis. The etiology of the condition is not clear. A variety of possible factors is considered, including microvascular ischemia, urine-borne toxic material, infectious and allergic stimuli and an immunologic defect. The pathogenesis of the condition appears to be based upon a chronic inflammatory reaction, with progressive fibrosis in the mucosa and submucosa of the ileal segment.
