Abstract
Vesicostomy is a temporary solution for patients with bladder outlet challenger who are not eligible for catheterization.
A 73 year-old man who has successfully managed his bladder using a vesicostomy for 59 years. Complications of prolapse and dermatitis led to vesicostomy closure and cystostomy placement at age 73.
Vesicostomy can be safely used to preserve bladder and upper urinary tract health for a lifetime.
