【 摘 要 】

Hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis can be a problem in urinary diversion using the ileum. A 73-year-old Japanese male was hospitalized in emergency due to anorexia and malaise 3 weeks after being discharged from the hospital after getting robot-assisted radical cystoprostatectomy and intracorporeal ileal conduit urinary diversion. The blood analysis revealed metabolic acidosis, elevated chloride ions, and marked hyperglycemia: he was diagnosed with hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome. We started administering insulin and large amounts of fluid replacement; besides, we inserted a large-diameter open tip catheter into the ileal conduit in hopes of inhibiting urine reabsorption in the intestinal mucosa. His general condition gradually improved, and he was discharged 10 days after his hospitalization.
