Abstract
Lower urinary tract abnormalities are directly implicated in the etiology of renal dysfunction in 6 to 24% of dialytic patients. These patients require bladder capacity and compliance readjustment before being considered viable candidates for renal transplantation. Vesical augmentation surgeries often involve the use of intestinal segments. Although these procedures can effectively restore bladder capacity and compliance, they present various issues related to maintaining mucous absorption and secretion capacity. Acidosis, recurrent urinary tract infections, and stone formation are extremely common, leading to frequent hospitalizations and graft function loss. Urinary tissue is certainly ideal for these reconstructions; however, bladder augmentation using ureter and renal pelvis are feasible only in a minority of cases. Experimental studies have been conducted to establish the groundwork for vascularized bladder transplantation. Last year, for the first time, this procedure was performed on a brain-dead patient. During this intervention, cystectomy was performed with preservation the vascular pedicle, followed by organ reimplantation. The graft remained viable for a period of 12 hours post-transplant. However, this intervention utilized a robotic platform, making it less reproducible in a multi-organ procurement setting as well as for most transplant centers. Moreover, it is debatable whether the benefits of exclusive bladder transplantation outweigh the risks associated with immunosuppression. For patients needing renal transplantation and requiring lower urinary tract reconstruction, however, utilizing the donor's bladder may offer an attractive alternative, avoiding the inherent complications of enterocystoplasty without increasing immunological risk. Combined kidney and bladder transplantation has the potential to emerge as the next frontier in abdominal organ transplants.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Malignancy after augmentation cystoplasty (AC) is reported up to 5.5 %. We assessed the use of urine fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) screening for bladder malignancy after AC. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this study, 36/98 patients under follow-up who have completed tenth year after ileal AC were included prospectively. Twenty-four (66.7 %) patients were tested with FISH initially and overall 28 (77.8 %) patients with conventional cytology (CC). Twenty-four (66.7 %) patients with FISH analysis also had cytology analysis. Blinded from the cytology results, 32 (88.9 %) patients who were consented underwent cystoscopy with random biopsy (native bladder, ileal segment, ileovesical junction). Two patients those were tested with FISH did not consented cystoscopy. This study was registred to the government registry (No: 71146310). RESULTS Mean follow-up time after AC was 15.4 ± 4.8 years. 2/32 (5.6 %) patients were diagnosed with adenocarcinoma in cyctoscopic biopsy. FISH analysis of 3/24 (12.5 %) patients demonstrated abnormal findings consistent with malignancy. Two FISH malignant patients were patients who had adenocarcinoma. The third patient's biopsy was benign and the third year control cystoscopy was normal. 2/4 patients with malignant CC had adenocarcinoma and 2/4 patients had benign biopsy. The sensitivity and specificity of FISH in our series were 100 % and 95 % respectively. Whereas the sensitivity and specificity of CC was 100 % and 91.6 % respectively. CONCLUSION Despite limited number of patients in this study, FISH showed higher specificity than CC in this series. FISH is a promising tool for malignancy screening after AC.

Abstract
Augmentation cystoplasty (AC) is an effective surgical procedure for patients with neurogenic bladder whenever conservative treatments have failed. The present study aimed to determine the risks of metabolic complications, malignancy, long-term outcomes and histopathologic changes of native bladder and the augmented intestine after AC in children with neurogenic bladder. Pediatric patients < 18 years who underwent AC between 2000 and 2020 were enrolled. Early postoperative complications, long-term outcomes and histopathologic changes in mucosal biopsies of native bladder and the augmented intestine after AC were reviewed. Twenty-two patients with a mean age of 7.6 ± 4.4 years were included. The ileum was used in 19 patients and the sigmoid colon in 3 patients. The length of hospital stay was 14.8 ± 6.8 days. Post-operatively, the urinary continence rate improved from 22.7 to 81.8% (p < 0.001). Hydronephrosis resolved in 17 of 19 patients. Vesicoureteral reflux resolved in 16 (64.0%) of the refluxing ureter units and was downgraded in 7 (28.0%). Grades of hydronephrosis and reflux significantly improved following AC (p < 0.001). The estimated glomerular filtration rate also significantly increased (p = 0.012). Formation of urinary tract stones was the most frequent late complication (in 8 patients, 36.4%). Life-threatening spontaneous bladder perforation occurred in 1 patient. After a mean follow-up of 13.4 ± 5.9 years, there were no cases of mortality, new-onset symptomatic metabolic acidosis, or changes in serum electrolytes. Of the 17 patients who were followed for > 10 years, no cases of malignancy or metaplastic changes were identified in the native bladder or augmented bowel epithelium. AC is a safe and effective procedure with low surgical and metabolic complication rates. In addition, AC provides a satisfactory continence rate and long-term protection of renal function, increases functional capacity, and regresses reflux and hydronephrosis. Individualized surveillance is recommended for the early identification of urolithiasis and metabolic disturbances.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Kidney transplant recipients (KTR) have a three-to-four-fold increased risk of developing urothelial carcinoma (UC) compared to the general population. BK polyoma virus (BKV) infection is known to affect approximately 15% of KTR. In vitro models support a potential pathogenic role for BKV in the development of UC. We describe a series of UC in kidney transplant recipients. METHODS Electronic patient records were searched to identify KTR with UC who had undergone kidney only or simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation in a single UK center between 2009 and 2015. Where available, stored pathological samples were retrieved, re-examined and stained for SV40 as a marker of BKV using standard staining protocols for kidney biopsy samples. RESULTS Fourteen KTR had developed UC post-transplant. Of these, 10 KTR had a history of BKV infection post-transplant. Six of these 10 KTR developed a rare micropapillary tumor subtype of UC which is typically only found in <1% of UC cases. All six micropapillary tumor samples stained positive for SV40, including samples from metastases. Three tumor samples were available from the four KTR with no history of BKV infection and were not micropapillary subtype and were negative for SV40. Three micropapillary tumors from immunocompetent patients were examined as controls and were negative for SV40. CONCLUSIONS These findings would support a pathogenic role for BK virus in the development of rare micropapillary subtype urothelial tumors in the kidney transplant population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Improved life expectancy and prenatal screening have changed the demographics of spina bifida (spinal dysraphism) which has presently become a disease of adulthood. Urinary disorders affect almost all patients with spinal dysraphism and are still the leading cause of mortality in these patients. The aim of this work was to establish recommendations for urological management that take into account the specificities of the spina bifida population. MATERIALS AND METHODS National Diagnosis and Management Guidelines (PNDS) were drafted within the framework of the French Rare Diseases Plan at the initiative of the Centre de Référence Maladies Rares Spina Bifida - Dysraphismes of Rennes University Hospital. It is a collaborative work involving experts from different specialties, mainly urologists and rehabilitation physicians. We conducted a systematic search of the literature in French and English in the various fields covered by these recommendations in the MEDLINE database. In accordance with the methodology recommended by the authorities (Guide_methodologique_pnds.pdf, 2006), proposed recommendations were drafted on the basis of this literature review and then submitted to a review group until a consensus was reached. RESULTS Bladder dysfunctions induced by spinal dysraphism are multiple and varied and evolve over time. Management must be individually adapted and take into account all the patient's problems, and is therefore necessarily multi-disciplinary. Self-catheterisation is the appropriate micturition method for more than half of the patients and must sometimes be combined with treatments aimed at suppressing any neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) or compliance alteration (anticholinergics, intra-detrusor botulinum toxin). Resort to surgery is sometimes necessary either after failure of non-invasive treatments (e.g. bladder augmentation in case of NDO resistant to pharmacological treatment), or as a first line treatment in the absence of other non-invasive alternatives (e.g. aponeurotic suburethral tape or artificial urinary sphincter for sphincter insufficiency; urinary diversion by ileal conduit if self-catheterisation is impossible). CONCLUSION Spinal dysraphism is a complex pathology with multiple neurological, orthopedic, gastrointestinal and urological involvement. The management of bladder and bowel dysfunctions must continue throughout the life of these patients and must be integrated into a multidisciplinary context.

Abstract
Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction, common in patients with chronic spinal cord injury, inevitably results in urological complications. To address neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction after spinal cord injury, proper and adequate bladder management is important in spinal cord injury rehabilitation, with the goal and priorities of the protection of upper urinary tract function, maintaining continence, preserving lower urinary tract function, improvement of SCI patients' quality of life, achieving compatibility with patients' lifestyles, and decreasing urological complications. This concise review aims to help urologists address neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction by focusing on the risks of long-term urological complications and the effects of different bladder management strategies on these complications based on scientifically supported knowledge.

Abstract
We report using the checkpoint inhibitor, pembrolizumab, as part of a multimodal treatment plan in a 36-year-old man with a rare bladder cancer arising 25 years after augmentation cystoplasty (sigmoid colonic cystectomy for neuropathic bladder was performed at 9 years old). On a regular clinic visit for clean intermittent catheterisation, the patient presented with gross haematuria and was diagnosed with urothelial carcinoma with sarcomatoid change. Gemcitabine and cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy was unsuccessful, and pembrolizumab infusions (200 mg every 3 weeks) were initiated. A partial response was confirmed after six courses of pembrolizumab, with significant tumour shrinkage. A radical cystoprostatectomy and ileal conduit construction was performed, and pathology revealed no evidence of malignancy (ypT0, N0). The patient was successfully treated with the anti-programmed death-1 inhibitor, pembrolizumab, which was curative after total cystectomy. Further research is required to elucidate the potential role of checkpoint inhibitors in bladder cancers arising after augmentation cystoplasty.

Abstract
CONTEXT Female lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are a common presentation in urological practice. Thus far, only a limited number of female LUTS conditions have been included in the European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines compendium. The new non-neurogenic female LUTS guideline expands the remit to include these symptoms and conditions. OBJECTIVE To summarise the diagnostic section of the non-neurogenic female LUTS guideline and the management of female overactive bladder (OAB), stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and mixed urinary incontinence (MUI). EVIDENCE ACQUISITION New literature searches were carried out in September 2021 and evidence synthesis was conducted using the modified GRADE criteria as outlined for all EAU guidelines. A new systematic review (SR) on OAB was carried out by the panel for the purposes of this guideline. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS The important considerations for informing guideline recommendations are presented, along with a summary of all the guideline recommendations. CONCLUSIONS Non-neurogenic female LUTS are an important cause of urological dysfunction. Initial evaluation, diagnosis, and management should be carried out in a structured and logical fashion based on the best available evidence. This guideline serves to present this evidence to health care providers in an easily accessible and digestible format. PATIENT SUMMARY This report summarises the main recommendations from the European Association of Urology guideline on symptoms and diseases of the female lower urinary tract (bladder and urethra) not associated with neurological disease. We cover recommendations related to diagnosis of these conditions, as well as the treatment of overactive bladder, stress urinary incontinence, and mixed urinary incontinence.

Abstract
The operations involved in the repair of complete bladder exstrophy (CBE), familiarly known as the Kelly procedure, evolved over more than 100 years. Through repeated cycles of trial and error, some of the most prominent urologists in the world developed techniques that addressed each of the formidable surgical challenges presented by CBE and epispadias. A key figure is Justin H. Kelly of the Royal Children's Hospital, Melbourne, who made surgery for CBE his life's work. He took the lessons of his surgical predecessors, giants like: Friedrich Trendelenburg, Hugh Hampton Young, John Dees, and Guy Leadbetter, applied techniques for anorectal anomalies from his contemporary Alberto Peña, and saw his procedures improved by the next generation of leaders in paediatric urology that included Phillip Ransley, Peter Cuckow, Patrick Duffy, and John Gearhart. Over his long career, Mr Kelly modified and perfected his eponymous procedure patient-by-patient through a painstaking process of trial-and-error, bearing with his young patients and their families through every heart-breaking complication, and gradually creating the standard operation for children with CBE and epispadias.

Abstract
Urinary diversion and reconstructive urologic procedures are most often performed by incorporating various intestinal segments into the urinary tract. Although the risk of malignancy, among other complications, is well recognized and occurs most frequently after ureterosigmoidostomies and cystoplasties, data on the histopathologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of these tumors are scant. This study aims to evaluate the clinicopathological features of secondary tumors arising after urologic reconstruction procedures. Eleven cases were identified among five collaborating academic institutions. The average age was 51.7 years, and the M:F ratio was 8:3. Surgical procedures included 7 ileal conduits, 2 gastrocystoplasties, 1 augmentation cystoplasty not otherwise specified (NOS), and 1 Indiana pouch. Median time from reconstruction to malignancy was 36 years. Malignancy included adenocarcinoma in 10 patients (intestinal type in 6, gastric in 2, signet-ring cell in 1, undetermined type after neoadjuvant treatment in 1) and squamous cell carcinoma in 1. By immunohistochemistry, the adenocarcinomas were CK7 (45%), CK20 (89%), CK903 (78%), CDX2 (89%), SATB2 (67%), and beta-catenin (100%) positive. GATA-3 was negative in all cases. Pathologic stage was T1 (30%), T2 (40%), T3 (20%), and T4 (10%). Regional lymph node and distant metastasis were present in 60% and 20%, respectively. Treatment included multimodality therapy in most patients. On follow-up (mean, 27.4 months), 2 patients were dead (1 of disease), 3 were alive with disease, 4 were alive without disease, and 2 were lost to follow-up. Secondary malignancy arising within urologic reconstruction is rare, most frequently has adenocarcinoma morphology, presents late, and behaves aggressively.

Augmentation uretero-enterocystoplasty for refractory urinary tract dysfunction: a long-term retrospective study. BMC Urol 2021; 21:166. [PMID: 34847903 PMCID: PMC8638541 DOI: 10.1186/s12894-021-00927-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 11/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives To report the long-term efficacy and complications of the augmentation uretero-enterocystoplasty (AUEC), including augmentation cystoplasty with simultaneous ureteroplasty and ureteral anti-reflux implantation in a single center. Methods We retrospectively reviewed clinical records, video-urodynamic data, and magnetic resonance urography of 210 patients who underwent the procedure for refractory lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) from 2003 to 2019. International vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and upper urinary tract dilatation (UUTD) grading systems were applied to assess upper urinary tract function, and post-operative complications were assessed. Results Mean age was 28.1 years, with a mean follow-up time of 57.4 months. A total of 338 ureters were simultaneously re-implanted, and ureteroplasty was performed on all ureters. There was a significant postoperative improvement in the bladder capacity, intravesical pressure, and compliance (P < 0.05). VUR improvement rate was 97.7% and postoperative improvement of UUTD presented in 72.5% ureters. Mean serum creatinine (Scr) level was significantly improved compared to preoperative Scr values (226.0 ± 89.4 μmol/L vs. 217.5 ± 133.9 umol/L, P < 0.05). The 1.0% patients had unacceptably postoperative urinary incontinence and 85.4% preoperative megaureters were improved. Primary complications included metabolic acidosis (9.5%), vesicoureteral anastomosis stenosis (6.2%), persistent VUR (2.7%), urinary calculi (6.6%), and intestinal dysfunction requiring laparotomy (3.3%). Conclusion In the study, a large series of patients treated with a complex surgical procedure was reported. It is novel, as this case series represents patients with aggressive surgical correction of VUR, ureteral tortuosity and upper tract dilation at the time of AC. AUEC was shown to have a positive role in treating patients with refractory LUTD associated with hydronephrosis and ureteral dilatation, stenosis or obstruction, with or without high- or low-pressure VUR. It was effective in improving renal function and protecting the UUT function from further deterioration in most patients with renal insufficiency.

Abstract
Overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome is a common condition characterised by urinary
urgency, with or without urgency incontinence, frequency and nocturia, in the
absence of any other pathology. Clinical diagnosis is based upon patient
self-reported symptomology. Currently there is a plethora of treatments
available for the management of OAB. Clinical guidelines suggest treatment
via a multidisciplinary pathway including behavioural
therapy and pharmacotherapy, which can be commenced in primary care, with
referral to specialist services in those patients refractory to these
treatments. Intradetrusor botulinum A and sacral neuromodulation provide safe
and efficacious management of refractory OAB. Percutaneous tibial nerve
stimulation and augmentation cystoplasty remain available and efficacious in a
select group of patients. Unfortunately, there remains a high rate of patient
dissatisfaction and discontinuation in all treatments and thus there remains a
need for emerging therapies in the management of OAB.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS The aim of this systematic review of the literature was to pool all the existing data regarding pregnancy and delivery in women with neurogenic bladder or bladder exstrophy who had undergone previous lower urinary tract reconstruction (LUTR). METHODS We conducted a systematic review of the literature from PubMed/MedLine, ClinicalTrials.gov and the Google Scholar database, from 1972 to July 2020. Fifty articles were included, of which 25 contained data that could be pooled (229 women representing 292 pregnancies). RESULTS Ninety-eight women had bladder exstrophy (43%), 58 had spinal dysraphism (25%), 14 had spinal cord injury (6%), and 59 presented other pathological conditions. Of these, 138 have had an augmentation cystoplasty (61%), 42 (18%) had a continent cutaneous urinary diversion, and 31 had an artificial urinary sphincter (14%). During their pregnancy, 97 women (33%) experienced at least one febrile urinary tract infection. Thirty-one women (11%) required ureteral stenting or nephrostomy placement for upper urinary tract dilatation. Forty-six pregnancies ended with premature delivery (16%). Delivery mode was by C-section for 108 patients (62%) and vaginal delivery for 104 (36%). Twenty complications were reported during delivery (mainly urological), of which 19 occurred during C-section. Nine women experienced postpartum urinary incontinence (4%); in 5 of then this was due to urinary fistulae secondary to complicated C-section. CONCLUSIONS Pregnancy and vaginal delivery are possible for women with LUTR who have no obstetric or medical contraindications, except for some particular cases of bladder exstrophy. However, these high-risk pregnancies and deliveries should be managed by a specialist multidisciplinary team.

Abstract
AIMS To establish the long-term efficacy and safety of bladder augmentation in spina bifida patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixteen patients were operated on using the Bramble technique. Preoperative and postoperative evaluation included clinical history, blood tests, urine cultures, cystography, pyelography, ultrasound, and filling cystometry. In the final review a standardized quality of life questionnaire was applied. RESULTS Median follow-up was 20 years (15-26). Kidney function was stabilized except for one case that required a kidney transplant. Hydronephrosis disappeared or improved (p = 0.03). Vesicoureteral reflux grades I-II was cured without reimplantation and grades III-IV responded better with reimplantation than without (p = 0.03). Quality of life improved in all patients, with all stating they would undergo the procedure again. After surgery, 94% of the patients exhibited diurnal continence but 25% exhibited nocturnal incontinence. Pressure at capacity decreased and bladder capacity increased (p < 0.001). One patient presented ureteral fistula with another presenting hemorrhage. Both required immediate surgical review. Late complications included urinary sphincter cuff erosion, renal lithiasis, four instances of bladder lithiasis and repeated pyelonephritis in one 24-year-old patient. All required surgery. The mean of urinary infections fell, from 2.5 per year (0.7) to 1 (0.5) (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Augmentation cystoplasty (AC) maintains its efficacy and improves quality of life in the long term. However, serious surgical complications can ensue, along with minor or major subsequent complications. This should be considered before surgery and makes lifelong monitoring of patients necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to describe the complication profile of augmentation cystoplasty in contemporary paediatric urology as well as its effect on bladder metrics. METHODS Consecutive operative cases were retrospectively reviewed at a single institution over 20 years (1999-2019). Short- and long-term outcomes and complications following augmentation cystoplasty were defined. RESULTS Of the 71 operative cases; the most common underlying diagnoses were neurogenic bladder (34%), exstrophy-epispadias complex (30%) and posterior urethral valves (23%). The most common tissue-type utilized was ileal (58%) and ureteric (30%). Peri-operative urine leak affected nine (13%) children but reservoir perforations were less common (4%). Mean end-of-study detrusor pressure improved significantly following bladder augmentation (38-17 cmH2 O, P < 0.001). Bladder capacity improved significantly (67-89%, P = 0.041). The median follow-up was 4.5 years (interquartile range: 1.9-10 years). Bladder urolithiasis affected 13 (18%) patients, and symptomatic urinary tract infections 36 (51%) patients. Formation of a continent catheterisable channel contributed a number of complications relating predominantly to stenosis (50%). Repeat augmentation cystoplasty was necessary in three (4%) cases. CONCLUSION Augmentation cystoplasty is a surgical intervention that improves bladder metrics. Given the potential complications, careful patient selection and appropriate pre-operative counselling are essential. Furthermore, pro-active post-operative management and transitional care are vital in the surgical care of children following augmentation cystoplasty.

Abstract
A 58-year-old woman with a previous clam ileocystoplasty was referred to the urology department for the investigation of haematuria. CT urogram showed a large left-sided soft tissue mass arising from the bladder. Histological analysis of the shavings from transurethral resection revealed a G3pT2 transitional cell carcinoma and T4N1Mx adenocarcinoma. The patient was referred to oncology for the discussion of palliative chemotherapy; however, in the interim she deteriorated and was admitted to hospital with a post-renal acute kidney injury. A right-sided nephrostomy was inserted relieving her obstruction and she subsequently made a good recovery. This case report illustrates the difficulties in the long-term follow-up of patients having undergone what is now a rarely performed procedure. In the absence of regular cystoscopic follow-up post ileocystoplasty, malignancy may present late and with complications from advanced disease.

Abstract
Surgical resection is commonly performed for augmented bladder cancer, yet an optimal treatment strategy for augmented bladder cancer with lymph node metastasis has not been established. Here, we report a case that achieved 7 years of survival after radical cystectomy and mesenteric lymph node dissection for squamous cell carcinoma arising from augmented bladder with lymph node metastasis. Extended surgery could be a useful treatment option for locally advanced augmented bladder cancer including mesenteric lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review recent literature related to urologic malignancies in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD). We performed a literature search of electronic databases (PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and CIANHL), with a focus on articles published between January 2015 and December 2019. RECENT FINDINGS Recent reports demonstrate a lower incidence of bladder cancer in the NLUTD population than previously found, although still significantly higher than the general population. Bladder cancer in patients with NLUTD is usually diagnosed at a younger age, and is associated with higher rates of squamous cell cancer, a higher stage at presentation, and increased mortality. Evidence for screening for bladder cancer in NLUTD is conflicting, with no formal protocols proven for general use. NLUTD has been shown to have a lower rate of prostate cancer, and may be associated with an earlier diagnosis of renal cancer. SUMMARY Genitourinary malignancies, although still rare, are an important source of morbidity and mortality in patients with NLUTD. Physicians should recognize that bladder cancer in NLUTD is often a lethal disease. Further research is needed to assist physicians with early recognition of these malignancies to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Augmentation cystoplasty is a surgical procedure used in the management of patients with neurogenic bladder. This procedure involves anastomosis of the bladder with gastrointestinal grafts, including portions of ileum, colon, or stomach. A rare but important complication of augmentation cystoplasty is the development of malignancy. The majority of malignancies arising in this setting have been described in case reports. A search for cases of non-urothelial carcinoma following augmentation cystoplasty was conducted through the urological pathology files of four major academic institutions. Ten cases were identified, including six cystoprostatectomy/cystectomy, two partial cystectomy, and two transurethral resection of bladder tumour specimens. The mean patient age at diagnosis was 47 years (range 27-87 years). The male:female ratio was 4:6. The tumours tended to present at an advanced stage; four cystoprostatectomy/cystectomy cases were categorised as pT3a, one was categorised as pT3b, and one was categorised as pT4a. Lymph node metastases were present in all cases which had lymph node excision (range 1-16 positive nodes per case). The majority of cases (90%) were predominantly characterised by a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with signet ring cell features. Other morphological features included mucinous features (30%), plasmacytoid features (20%), enteric/villous architecture (10%), and large cell undifferentiated morphology (10%). This is the largest study to date on the clinicopathological features of invasive non-urothelial carcinoma of the bladder following augmentation cystoplasty. The tumours are typically poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, with diffuse signet ring cell features, aggressive, and present at high stage. Further molecular characterisation may provide additional insights into the pathogenesis of this entity.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the therapeutic effects of intradetrusor onabotulinum toxin A (BTX) injections in patients with adult neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (ANLUTD) and medically refractory poorly compliant bladders. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated patients with urodynamic studies (UDS)-proven, medically refractory impaired bladder compliance (≤20 mL/cm H2 O) secondary to spinal myelopathy treated with 300 units of BTX cystoscopically injected into the detrusor muscle. Objective improvement in compliance was defined as an increase ≥5 mL/cm H2 O on repeat urodynamics. Characteristics were compared between patients who demonstrated symptomatic and objective improvement following treatment versus those without. RESULTS Seventy-one individuals were included in the final analysis. Mean patient age was 37.2 years (range: 18-78) and ANLUTD duration was 14.5 years (range: 1-34). Average pre-injection bladder compliance was 9.2 mL/cm H2 O (range: 3.0-16.7). After treatment with BTX, 37 of 71 (52%) patients reported subjective reductions in lower urinary tract symptoms. Repeat UDS demonstrated objective bladder compliance improvements in 22 of 71 (31%). Individuals with shorter time intervals since neurologic injury responded better to BTX than those with longer durations (P = .032). CONCLUSION BTX injections significantly improved symptoms and bladder compliance in 31% of ANLUTD patients with medical refractory poorly compliant bladders.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is a rare long-term complication in gastrocystoplasty. We report 2 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma and review the literature for similar cases. A total of 14 cases are identified. The majority of patients are males, presented with hematuria, and developed cancer at a younger age, more than 10 years after gastrocystoplasty. Long-term follow up information was limited, but 5 patients (36%) died within 5 years of diagnosis. Annual surveillance for malignancy may not be effective due to its rarity. However, symptomatic patients, particularly those 10 years after the surgery, warrant detailed evaluation to rule out neoplastic transformation.

Bladder cancer in patients with spina bifida: a serious risk. World J Urol 2020; 39:1531-1537. [PMID: 32632554 DOI: 10.1007/s00345-020-03338-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Accepted: 06/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE After bladder augmentation (BA) using bowel segments, it is known that there is a risk for secondary malignancies. It remains unclear whether this also applies to spina bifida (SB) patients without BA. The aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of bladder cancer (BC) in SB at a single tertiary institution and assess the patients' oncologic outcome. METHODS Patients with SB and BC treated from January 2016 until March 2020 were included and corresponding data were collected retrospectively. Endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Among 132 adult patients with SB, four with a median age of 34.5 years (IQR 31.5-36.8, range 31-37) had a BC. None of the patients had undergone BA. Most common symptoms included recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI) (75%) and hydronephrosis (75%). At the time of the diagnosis, tumors were locally advanced (≥ T3) and lymph-node positive in all cases. All patients underwent radical cystectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy in two out of four cases. Histology showed squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) or at least a squamous cell component in all patients. The median PFS was 5.9 months (IQR 5.1-124.5) and the median OS was 8.7 months (IQR 6.3-125.5). CONCLUSIONS SCC in SB can appear at a young age and is usually diagnosed in an advanced tumor stage with poor prognosis despite radical surgical resection. Patients with SB without BA with clinical symptoms, new onset of hematuria, and/or upper tract dilatation should receive a cystoscopy ± further imaging.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bladder augmentation is a surgery that can increase bladder capacity and compliance. The objective of this study was to provide a longitudinal review of pediatric bladder augmentation at a tertiary Canadian center. METHODS A retrospective review was performed on patients who underwent bladder augmentation at a tertiary pediatric hospital between 1986 and 2014. The primary objective was short- and long-term complications of augmentation. Secondary objectives were to review number of augmentation procedures performed over time and the utility of routine postoperative cystograms. RESULTS A total of 56 procedures were performed on 54 patients (28 males, 26 females) of mean age 10 years (standard deviation [SD] 5) and mean followup eight years (SD 5). The most common bowel segment used was ileum (87.5%). Twenty-eight patients (50%) received catheterizable channels. Overall complication rate was 15% and the most common complications were urinary tract infections (68.5%), worsening hydronephrosis (14.8%), bladder stone formation (14%), and hematuria (13%). In total, 19 of 54 (35.2%) patients returned to the operating room. The incidence of bladder perforation was 3.6%. Complications with the catheterizable channel occurred in 13 of 28 (46.4%), of which 10 were related to stomal stenosis. Forty patients had postoperative cystograms and extravasation was seen in three (7.5%). There was no malignancy during the followup. Only four augmentations were performed from 2008-2014. CONCLUSIONS Bladder augmentation likely represents a safe surgical treatment option. Extravasation on postoperative cystogram was uncommon and, thus, it may not be indicated routinely. The number of augmentation procedures performed has declined in recent years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment in children and adolescents with a neurogenic bladder is primarily conservative with the goal of preserving the upper urinary tract combined with a good reservoir function of the bladder. However, sometimes-even in childhood-conservative management does not prevent the development of a low-compliant bladder or overactive detrusor. MATERIAL & METHODS After a systematic literature review covering the period 2000-2017, the ESPU/EUAU guideline for neurogenic bladder underwent an update. RESULTS In these patients, surgical interventions such as botulinum toxin A injections into the detrusor muscle, bladder augmentation, and even urinary diversion may become necessary to preserve the function of the upper (and lower) urinary tracts. The creation of a continent catheterizable channel should be offered to patients with difficulties performing transurethral clean intermittent catheterization. However, a revision rate of up to 50% needs to be considered. With increasing age continence of urine and stool becomes progressively more important. In patients with persistent weak bladder outlets, complete continence can be achieved only by surgical interventions creating a higher resistance/obstruction at the level of the bladder outlet with a success rate of up to 80%. In some patients, bladder neck closure and the creation of a continent catheterizable stoma is an option. CONCLUSION In all these patients close follow-up is mandatory to detect surgical complications and metabolic consequences early.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The potential of malignant transformation and its risk factors after bladder augmentation performed in childhood are still unknown. The necessity of surveillance cystoscopies and biopsies has been questioned in the past decade. OBJECTIVE In a previous study, the authors did not detect any malignancy after colocystoplasty (CCP) or gastrocystoplasty (GCP) during the short-term follow-up, however, various alterations of the mucosa were found. A correlation between the nature of histological changes and the frequency of bacterial colonization after CCP were also found. The authors hypothesized that a longer-term follow-up of their patients would reveal an increase in pathological change or show stronger association between the histological alteration, bacterial colonization, and/or stone formation. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty-five patients (20 cases of colocystoplasties - CCPs; 15 cases of gastrocystoplasties - GCPs) participated in the study published in 2002. All patients were followed biannually with endoscopic assessment and biopsies. Two independent pathologists, evaluated regular biopsies from the native bladder, from the segment used for augmentation and from the anastomosis line. Etiology, frequency of positive urine cultures, and stone events were recorded and compared with histological findings between groups and with the previously published results. RESULTS Continuous surveillance allowed the follow-up of 30 patients (CCP 19/20, GCP 11/15) for 20 and 15 years. No malignancies were identified. Results of biopsies showed significant difference between groups (summarized in the tables). Chronic inflammatory changes were found following both types of augmentations, but they were more common in the urothelium following GCP and more common in the colonic mucosa following CCP. The rate of metaplastic lesions was higher after gastrocystoplasty (GCP). Significant association was found between the etiologic factor and the nature of histological change after CCP, as metaplastic lesions occurred only in patients with bladder exstrophy. Stones occurred more frequently in exstrophy patients as well. The nature of the histological changes did not correlate with positive urine cultures in either of the groups. Significantly higher incidence of bacterial colonization and stone occurrence were found after CCP. CONCLUSIONS Long-term follow-up of the patients failed to reveal an increase in pathological changes, and no malignancies were observed. According to the results of this study, etiology of bladder dysfunction and the type of augmentation might influence the histological alterations after augmentation cystoplasty. The efficiency of surveillance cystoscopies and biopsies are low. The present data suggest that surveillance cystoscopy and biopsy should not be routinely performed, and should be done only if the symptoms are suspicious for malignancy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of this paper was to evaluate the current use of enterocystoplasty, a historical operation for bladder dysfunction but with continued and increasing modern relevance. RECENT FINDINGS Since the advent of third line neuromodulation techniques for neurogenic and idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB), the usage of enterocystoplasty has decreased. However, this procedure continues to be utilized in pediatric urology patients and the most refractory OAB patients. Adult urologist should be familiar with this operative technique in an effort to manage pediatric patients transitioning to adulthood. Minimally invasive techniques for this surgical procedure have been described with very limited outcome data. It is important for all urologists to be familiar with enterocystoplasty, both technically and with the unique needs of these patients postoperatively. Further studies evaluating the outcomes of this procedure in idiopathic overactive bladder patients and efforts to standardize recommendations for neurogenic bladder patients will help guide care in the future.

Abstract
Villous adenomas arising in the bladder following augmentation cystoplasty procedures are exceedingly rare. Even rarer is their occurrence in the native bladder mucosa and the upper urinary tract. In this article, we present a unique case of multifocal recurrent villous adenoma involving native bladder mucosa of an augmented bladder, bilateral ureters, and renal pelvis, with coexistent foci of adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine carcinoma, in a patient with history of augmentation colocystoplasty. We additionally discuss the pathogenesis of development of carcinoma in the setting of augmentation cystoplasty.

Abstract
AIM To report the very long-term functional outcomes of augmentation cystoplasty (AC) in adult spina bifida patients. METHODS All consecutive adult spina bifida patients who underwent AC between 1991 and 2008 were enrolled. Early postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo classification) and long-term outcomes (voiding modalities, urodynamic parameters, renal function, continence, and quality of life) were assessed. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients with a median age of 20 years (IQR 17-25) were included. They all underwent AC with a supratrigonal cystectomy (SC). The median follow-up was 13.6 years (IQR 6-16.5). Thirteen early postoperative complications (12 grade I-II, 1 grade III) were observed in 11 patients (39%). Eight patients (29%) had upper urinary tract infections managed with antibiotics, with 2 patients requiring ureteral stents. Bladder stones occurred in 2 patients (7%) and were managed with endoscopy and cystostomy. One bladder perforation was reported. One bladder cancer was observed 26 years after surgery. Creatinine clearance and all urodynamic parameters were significantly improved post-operatively. The overall complication and reoperation rates were 57% and 14%, respectively. At last follow up, the continence rate was 71% (n = 20), with 93% (n = 26) performing intermittent self-catheterization. Quality of life was improved for 71% of patients. CONCLUSION In adult spina bifida population, AC is a high-risk procedure with an overall complication rate of 57% and a reoperation rate of 14%. However, AC is beneficial to the overall health of the patients since it provides a satisfying continence rate, an improvement of quality of life, and long-term protection of the upper urinary tract.

Abstract
Bladder augmentation is a demanding surgical procedure and exclusively offered for selected children and has only a small spectrum of indications. Paediatric bladder voiding dysfunction occurs either on a basis of neurological dysfunction caused by congenital neural tube defects or on a basis of rare congenital anatomic malformations. Neurogenic bladder dysfunction often responds well to a combination of specific drugs and/or intermittent self-catheterization. However, selected patients with spinal dysraphism and children with congenital malformations like bladder exstrophy and resulting small bladder capacity might require bladder augmentation. Ileocystoplasty is the preferred method of bladder augmentation to date. Because of the substantial long-and short-term morbidity of augmentation cystoplasty, recent studies have tried to incorporate new techniques and technologies, such as the use of biomaterials to overcome or reduce the adverse effects. In this regard, homografts and allografts have been implemented in bladder augmentation with varying results, but recent studies have shown promising data in terms of proliferation of urothelium and muscle cells by using biological silk grafts.

Abstract
Objective: The objective of this paper is to identify the similarities and key differences between the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines on the management of urinary incontinence (UI) in women. Methods: We reviewed the most recent iterations of both full guidelines to identify all key recommendations and their associated level/grade of evidence. Guidance on the management of urinary incontinence in men and neuropathic patients was excluded. Results: There is a significant overlap in the recommendations of both guidelines. Key differences include the indications for performing urodynamics, pharmacological agents in stress UI, the dose of botulinum toxin A (200 units by NICE, 100 units by EAU), the hierarchy of surgical options for primary stress UI and the role of the multi-disciplinary team (MDT). Conclusion: This review provides the various stakeholders involved in the management of female UI with a summary of the strength of evidence supporting the recommendations by these two key guidelines. We have provided an evidence-based framework to support clinical experience from which to base management decisions.

Abstract
It has been known that urinary diversions juxtaposing the urinary and intestinal tracts lead to increased incidence of secondary malignancies. Although tumorigenesis in ureterosigmoidostomies follows the typical course from adenomas to adenocarcinomas, secondary malignancies arising from isolated intestinal diversions are much more heterogeneous. Research over the last half century has unveiled patterns of incidence and progression, while also uncovering possible mechanisms driving the neoplastic changes. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of these unique tumors, with the hope that the knowledge gained may shed light on the etiologies of other cancers arising from the urinary and intestinal tracts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE We report the current status of patients who underwent augmentation cystoplasty (AC) at least 20years previously. METHODS Surgical history, incidence of urinary tract infection (UTI) and bladder stones, vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), urine cytology, renal function, a colon cancer tumor marker (carcinoembryonic antigen: CEA), and patient outcomes were assessed. RESULTS Forty patients who underwent AC (mean age: 34.4years; mean follow-up time: 24.3years) were analyzed. Mean age at AC was 11years. Incidence of bladder stones was 30%. There were no incidences of carcinoma after AC, and CEA levels were not increased. Ureteral reimplantation (URI) was performed in 21 patients. URI performed at the same time as AC was successful in 14 cases (93%) and unsuccessful in 1 (7%) because of persistent VUR. UTI developed after AC in only 1 patient (2.5%) with persistent VUR. This patient required unilateral nephrectomy 18years after the AC because of repeated UTIs. Thirty-four patients (85%) were employed, and 4 (10%) were married. Two of the 19 female patients (11%) had experienced pregnancy and delivery. Five patients (13%) had mental disorders. CONCLUSION Ultra long-term follow-up suggests that AC is a safe procedure with manageable sequelae, although some mental health issues remain. TYPE OF STUDY Case series with no comparison group.

Abstract
Purpose: To evaluated the effects of L-lysine on the intestinal and urothelial epithelia in cystoplasty in rats. Methods: Twenty-eight 9-week-old rats were assigned to 4 groups: Group A (n=8) cystoplasty followed by administration of L-lysine (150 mg/kg body weight by gavage) for 30 weeks; Group B (n=8) cystoplasty + water for 30 weeks; Group C (n=6) L-lysine for 30 weeks; Group D (n=6) water for 30 weeks. Results: On histopathology with hematoxylin and eosin, mild to moderate hyperplasia transitional was observed in at the site of anastomosis in all animals submitted to cystoplasty (Groups A and B), but "transitional metaplasia" of the intestinal glandular epithelium was more accentuated in Group A (p=0.045). No inflammatory cells, dysplasia or abnormalities were observed. Staining with Alcian blue revealed a substantial reduction of goblet cells and mucins in the colon segment (Groups A and B). Conclusion: The administration of L-lysine to rats accelerated the development of transitional metaplasia in the epithelium of the colon segment in cystoplasty.

Abstract
The child with a neuropathic bladder requires lifelong dedicated care. Just as each patient presents with unique physiology, each phase of their life presents varying challenges. The primary concern for our patients is their renal health, but continence and independence also play significant roles. Most patients can be managed conservatively, but a myriad of surgical options are also available, reinforcing our emphasis on individualized care. Appropriate pre-surgical planning is required to ensure the right patient receives the best operation for his/her wants and needs. Furthermore, the numerous potential complications must be understood and long-term followup and surveillance is required. This review outlines the basic pathophysiology, investigations, and treatments, with a focus on the changing needs throughout their lives.

Long-term effectiveness and complication rates of bladder augmentation in patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction: A systematic review. Neurourol Urodyn 2017; 36:1685-1702. [PMID: 28169459 DOI: 10.1002/nau.23205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2016] [Revised: 11/03/2016] [Accepted: 11/16/2016] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
AIMS To systematically evaluate effectiveness and safety of bladder augmentation for adult neuro-urological patients. METHODS The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) statement was followed for review of publications. The Medline, Embase, and Cochrane controlled trial databases and clinicaltrial.gov were searched until January 2015. No limitations were placed on date or language. Non-original articles, conference abstracts, and publications involving children and animals were excluded. Risk-of-bias and confounder assessment was performed. RESULTS A total of 20 studies including 511 patients were eligible for inclusion. The level of evidence for the included studies was low, most level 4 studies with only one level 3 study. The data were narratively synthesized. Across all studies high risk-of bias and confounding was found. Primary outcomes were assessed in 16 of the 20 studies and showed improved quality of life and anatomical changes as well as stable renal function. The secondary outcomes were reported in 17 of the 20 studies and urodynamic parameters and continence all demonstrated improvement after bladder reconstruction. Long-term complications continued up to 10 years post-operatively, including bowel dysfunction in 15% of the patients, stone formation in 10%, five bladder perforations and one bladder cancer. CONCLUSIONS Available studies are not plentiful and of relatively poor quality, appropriately designed prospective studies are urgently needed. Despite this, bladder augmentation appears to be a highly effective procedure at protecting the upper urinary tract and improving quality of life. However, it is associated with relatively high morbidity in both the short and long term.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To document the long-term outcomes of paediatric augmentation gastrocystoplasty (AGC) in terms of preservation of renal function and maintenance of dryness, and to analyse the rate of complications. PATIENTS AND METHODS The medical records of children who had undergone AGC between 1992 and 2000 (minimum time interval of 15 years) were reviewed retrospectively. The following data were collected: age at surgery, the cause of bladder dysfunction, functioning of the AGC, any complications, and the long-term outcome of the patients. All of the patients were re-contacted by telephone. RESULTS A total of 11 AGCs were carried out between 1992 and 2000, at a median (range) age of 11 (6.5-14) years. The diagnosis of patients undergoing AGC included myelomeningocele (four), bladder exstrophy (four), posterior urethral valves (one), irradiated bladder (one), and Prune Belly syndrome (one). The median [interquartile range (IQR)] follow-up was 17 (15-19.5) years. Renal function was preserved or improved in seven of the 11 patients and nine patients were dry after AGC. Seven of the 11 patients reported symptoms linked to haematuria-dysuria syndrome, which was resistant to treatment in one case and requiring excision of the gastric patch. Three of the 11 patients developed a tumour on the gastric graft after a median (range) delay of 20 (11-22) years after the initial procedure. All had gastric adenocarcinoma of which two were metastatic at the time of diagnosis requiring pelvectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection and adjuvant chemotherapy. Seven of the 11 patients underwent excision of the gastric patch after a median (IQR) time of 11 (8.5-20.5) years. CONCLUSIONS Our long-term data confirmed that most patients undergoing AGC had preservation of their renal function and were continent. However, long-term, AGC was associated with a significant risk of malignant transformation and a high rate of surgical re-intervention involving removal of the gastric patch. These results question the use of this technique for bladder augmentation, irrespective of the indication. We highlight the importance of strict endoscopic follow-up of all patients already having undergone an AGC and the need to inform and educated patients about tumour-related symptoms.
