 • A variety of surgical techniques to reroute the urine stream have been performed and are often encountered on imaging studies • Diagnosis of complications relies upon first determining the procedure performed and the alterations made to the GU and GI tract • Knowledge of expected postoperative anatomy, examination techniques and potential complications is essential for accurate diagnosis   Purpose/Aim: 1. Review methods of urinary diversion and expected postoperative anatomy. 2. Discuss the indications for imaging following urinary diversion and examination techniques 3. Review imaging findings of early and late postoperative complications  

Content Organization: • Indications for Urinary Diversion • Methods of Urinary Diversion and Expected postoperative anatomy- including continent and incontinent diversion Cutaneous Reservoir, Ileal Conduit, Continent Pouch with Stoma, Neobladder • Indications for Imaging and examination techniques  CT, MRI, Pouchography, IVP, US • Early postoperative complications Leak (GU or GI), Fistula, Abscess, GI or GU obstruction • Late postoperative complications Stomal stenosis, Strictures, Stones, Fistula, Infection, Hernia, Recurrent tumor
