Unreferenced date June 2008 As distinct from the Western medical concept of Urinarybladder , this concept from Traditional Chinese Medicine is more a way of describing a set of interrelated functions than an anatomical organ. See Zang Fu theory The Bladder is a Yang Fu organ its paired Yin Zang organ is the Kidney. Both are associated with the element of water and the emotion of fear. As opposed to western medicine, where the bladders function is the storage and excretion of urine, the bladder in Traditional Chinese Medicine has extended functions, including how fluids are transformed during urine production. Fluids are still sent from the small intestine to the bladder for storage, but the bladders capabilities are dependant on the kidney yang. If the kidney is yang deficient, the bladder may not have the sufficient qi and heat to transform fluids properly into urine. This could result in overly clear urine that must be excreted more frequently.

Types Nephrostomy from the renal pelvis Urostomy from more distal origins along the urinary tract, with subtypes including Ileal conduit urinary diversion Bricker conduit Indiana pouch Neobladder to urethra diversion Ureteroenteric anastomosis A common feature of the three first, and most common, types of urinary diversion is the ureteroenteric anastomosis. This is the joining site of the ureters and the section of intestine used for the diversion. The ureteroenteric anastomosis can be created in a number of different ways. There is the option of a refluxing or a non refluxing type, and the two ureters can be joined into the intestinal segment either together or separately. The non refluxing type has been associated with higher incidence of ureteroenteric anastomosis stricture, and there is doubt whether it has any advantages over the refluxing type. Therefore, many surgeons prefer the refluxing type which is simpler and apparently carries a lesser degree of complications.

Risks of bladder augmentation include incomplete voiding of the bladder post surgery resulting in the patient having to undergo intermittent catheterisation or an indwelling catheter , acute intestinal obstruction due to adhesions some years after surgery, and, in extremely rare cases, cancers of the intestinal tissue within the bladder.
