Abstract
The urinary bladder can be the site of primary malignant tumors requiring its resection. It also can be invaded by soft tissue sarcomas of the pelvis, adenocarcinomas of the rectum, or gynecologic malignancies that, when extensive, necessitate the en bloc resection of the entire bladder or the bulk of it. In such cases, reconstruction is needed in order to restore the function of the urinary tract.
