Deterioration of renal function was observed in only one patient, which was deemed to be due to diabetes mellitus. The limitation of the present study is the relatively
small sample selleck kinase inhibitor size and short follow up. This was predominantly due to the limited enrollment period and stringent criteria for enrollment. Moreover, due to a lack of resources, standardized pads were not used to quantify the degree of incontinence. Nevertheless, it presents a comprehensive clinico-urodynamic analysis of lower urinary tract function in patients with orthotopic neobladder and incites researchers for larger and longitudinal studies on urethral function evaluation in this patient-group using urethral pressure profilometry. To conclude, in patients undergoing cystoprostatectomy, KU-57788 cell line W-configured detubularized ileal neobladder with extramural serosal-tunnel non-refluxing uretero-ileal anastomosis has acceptable functional characteristics in terms of good capacity, compliance, absence of reflux and ability to empty without having to resort to CIC. However, A significant proportion of patients do have urinary incontinence (night > day) impacting quality of life. Regular pelvic floor muscle training consisting of strengthening and relaxation exercises may help improve lower urinary tract function. There is no conflict
