Urinary tract after abdomino-perineal resection

ZL Barbaric, DE Wolfe and AJ Segal

Uroradiological examinations on 33 patients subjected to abdomino- perineal resection were analyzed. The most common finding was medial displacement of both ureters, with the right one frequently crossing the midline. Bladder deformity, sometimes severe, was present in all patients. Localized ureteral narrowing due to stricture or recurring neoplasm was found in 30% of the patients examined. Other common complications included retrovesical abscesses, periurethral abscesses, urethral fistulas and strictures, and bladder retention. All these findings were more prominent in men.
