Abstract
Creating a reliable antireflux mechanism from bowel segments has taxed reconstructive
urologists for many years. Historically, this problem was first focused on during the
development of ureterosigmoidostomy. The pioneering technical alterations developed
first by Coffey in 19111 and later by Leadbetter in 19512 significantly improved the
morbidity and mortality associated with this operation. These techniques require the
formation of a submucosal tunnel similar to bladder reimplantation techniques. This is
easily accomplished in large bowel segments, but cannot be used in reconstruction using
small bowel. The attachment of the small bowel mucosa to the valvulae conniventes
prevents the dissection of the mucosa through the submucosal layer.
