The present study is devoted to improving quality of life of patients in elderly and senile age after operation of Bricker by finding the optimal method of forming ureterointestinal anastomosis. From 2007 to 2009 103 patients of elderly and senile age with diseases requiring removal of the bladder were treated in the Lenigrad Regional Oncology Centre. All the patients were made cystectomy. Patients were divided into two groups: In 1st group, the ureterointestinal anastomosis was formed a classical way "end to side" described Bricker, in the 2nd group ureterointestinal anastomosis was performed by the method of Wallace - "common area". Pathological conditions developed in patients in late postoperative period were as follows: hydronephrosis in early and later stages, obstructive pyelonephritis, frequent attacks of chronic pyelonephritis, chronic renal failure, urinary fistula. Formation of ureterointestinal anastomosis by Wallace during surgery reduces the amount of later postoperative complications. Quality of life was better after the formation of ureterointestinal anastomosis by Wallace.
