ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -A cystoplasty (bladder augmentation) is a surgery that makes your bladder larger so you can hold more urine. The procedure takes anywhere from two to six hours. Risks include urinary tract infections and bladder stretching or tearing if you don’t clean your catheters.

Detailed explanation-2: -Neobladder reconstruction is a surgical procedure to construct a new bladder. If a bladder is no longer working properly or is removed to treat another condition, a surgeon can create a new way for urine to exit the body (urinary diversion).

Detailed explanation-3: -Specific indications include structurally diminished bladder capacity, neurogenically incapacitated bladder, special circumstances of overactive bladder, and interstitial cystitis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bladder augmentation cystoplasty (AC) is used in the adult population for neurogenic bladder dysfunction, as well as for inflammatory conditions such as tuberculosis cystitis that result in a severely contracted bladder, interstitial cystitis, and reconstruction of iatrogenic bladder injury [1].

Detailed explanation-5: -Bladder augmentation is a complex reconstructive surgical procedure to increase the size of the organ and to improve its ability to stretch. The bladder is a soft, stretchy, balloon-like organ where urine is stored until it is expelled from the body.
