Zusammenfassung:IntroductionSigmoid conduit is one of the methods for achieving urinary diversion, but it is performed less frequently than ileal conduit and ureterostomy. Herein, we report a case in which a sigmoid colon conduit was performed after nephrostomy and transverse colostomy.Case presentationA 70-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of a bladder tumor. Computed tomography and transurethral biopsy revealed advanced bladder cancer with ureteral and rectal invasion. Despite drug therapy, the tumor progressed. Thus, nephrostomy and transverse colostomy were performed for urinary and fecal diversion, respectively. Subsequently, chemotherapy was administered for 8 months. As nephrostomy-related complications occurred frequently during chemotherapy, a sigmoid colon conduit was performed instead of nephrostomy for urinary diversion to improve the patient's quality of life.ConclusionIn patients with advanced bladder cancer requiring a double stoma of the urinary and fecal tracts, sigmoid colon conduit may be selected as a urinary diversion method.
