Sixty-four children underwent colon conduit urinary diversion because of a neurogenic bladder owing to myelomeningocele and 39 children required a ureterosigmoidostomy because of bladder exstrophy. The average length of followup was 4.6 years after colon conduit and 5.6 years after ureterosigmoidostomy. Colon conduit diversion was secondary in 3 children and ureterosigmoidostomy was secondary in 5. Of the children with a colon conduit 9.4% and of those with ureterosigmoidostomy 12.8% had postoperative surgical complications. Late surgical complications were encountered after colon conduit in 14.5% and after ureterosigmoidostomy in 20%. Of the children with normal renal function preoperatively 8.3% showed late deterioration after colon conduit and 8.7% after ureterosigmoidostomy. Conversely, only 16.7% with impaired renal function preoperatively did not improve at long-term followup after colon conduit. Of the renoureteral units 91% were normal after colon conduit and 95.2% were normal after ureterosigmoidostomy. The colon conduit halted the preoperative pyelonephritis in 74% of 31 affected kidneys.

Pyelonephritis and urinary calculi are the most frequent urological complications during pregnancy. They are followed by injuries of the urinary system during birth or in connection with multiple traumas in traffic accidents. Kidney transplantation or permanent urinary diversion (Ileum- or Colon-Conduit) are not an absolute obstacle for pregnancies when closely followed. Problematic for mother and child is the coincidence of pregnancy and malignant tumours. In that case good cooperation among the different specialities is necessary. This study provides a concept for the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Knowledge of adequate methods of examination and modern techniques and a timely treatment meeting the demands of the situation prevent complications and sequelae of the pregnancy.
