Absorbable stapling techniques in continent urinary diversion
Abstract
The principle of bowel detubularization to decrease peristaltic pressure and increase reservoir capacity is applied in contemporary continent urinary diversions. The process of detubularization and refashioning of the spatulated bowel segment approximates 1 of operating time and is the most time-consuming aspect of pouch construction. The employment of devices applying absorbable staples ("absorbable staplers") has substantially reduced the time required to fashion bowel reservoirs. This article reviews the adaptation of the absorbable stapler to continent urinary diversion using small- and large-bowel segments.
