Urinary diversion following cystectomy on account of carcinoma of the bladder are pretentious surgical operations involving the risk of early and late complications. The authors made a retrospective analysis of 198 cases. Death during the early postoperative period was recorded in 3 patients (2x ileus and 1x pulmonary embolism). Other early complications were dehiscence of the intestinal anastomosis (3x), dehiscence of the skin would/3x) and pneumonia (3x). Clinically relevant late complications were ileus due to adhesions (4x), stenosis of the ureteroenteric anastomosis (21 ureteroenteric units and urolithiasis (6x). Metabolic acidosis was recorded frequently (19x). Complications were more frequent in patients with advanced disease and in a poor biological state.
