J Urol. 1975 Oct;114(4):533-5. doi: 10.1016/s0022-5347(17)67076-9.

Abstract

New procedures for tubeless cutaneous ureterostomy are described. The fundamental principles of the methods are 1) an everted ureteral nipple formation combined with a triangular skin flap as a permanent stoma and 2) a 2-stage operation to obtain a viable ureteral nipple against slough and retraction.
