Description
Summary:To examine the durability of continent cutaneous catheterizable urinary channels (CCCC) in children and assess whether channel complications continue to arise with extended follow-up. Previous studies demonstrated that complications of CCCC cluster in the early years following surgery. The database of a tertiary center was queried for patients≤21 years who underwent CCCC. Patients with 5 years following initial surgery irrespective of the channel type (P=.978). On multivariate analysis, ileal channels had 3.372 higher odds of needing reoperation compared to appendicovesicostomy (95%CI=1.240-9.166; P = .037). A high reoperation rate is anticipated throughout the lifetime of CCCC. Appendicovesicostomy has a low complication risk relative to ileal channels.
