A neobladder is one of the three main types of permanent urinary diversion that is surgically created to allow the body to eliminate urine. Although there are other situations when a neobladder might be used, they are most commonly found in patients who have had their urinary bladders removed as a result of bladder cancer. The neobladder is created using a section of the patient's small intestine and connected to their ureters and urethra. This particular type of urinary diversion results in a continent reservoir, with urine collected, stored, and emptied in the usual place and via the usual processes, albeit with a newly-created organ lacking the original musculature.
