Methods A modified technique of Indiana pouch was performed on 5 patients following radical cystectomy. Results 5 cases showed satisfactory therapeutic effects with of follow-up range of 6 to 30 months. All patients were continent day and night with easy catherization. The number of micturations was 5 to 6 times in the daytime and 1 to 3 times in the nighttime. Cystography of 4 cases showed that pouches were spheroidic and volumes were between 400 to 500 ml. Conclusion The advantages of the modified Indiana pouch are as follows: easy manipulation; low tension and high volume in pouches; no reflux; satisfactory urinary continence and few complications. Therefore, it is worthy of clinical popularization.展开更多
