The past five .yeans have brought considerable changes in the urologic management of children born with myelodysplasia. The most notable developments are clean intermittent cathetenization (CIC) with and without adjunctive surgery; decreased use of suprapubic bladder expression; general disenchantment with the long-term results of the refluxing uretenointestinal conduit diversions; artificial u...

An increased risk of neoplasm has been noted when bowel segments are used for urinary diversion. Particularly true for ureterosigmoidostomy, colonic adenocarcinoma has rarely been reported following Indiana Pouch diversion. This report describes a 42-year-old woman with a history of bladder exstrophy who developed a polyp in her Indiana Pouch 24 years after its creation. The polyp, found incide...

The biotic and abiotic: processes involved in the environmental degradation of freshwater ecosystems are often complex, and their combined effects are not easily measured. Many human activities across the landscape contribute to degradation, including discharge of domestic, agricultural, and industrial effluents; cultural eutrophication; acidification; erosion and sedimentation following human ...

2 Assistant Professor of Environmental Planning, Department of Landscape Architecture, University of California, Berkeley, California. Abstract: One of the most fundamental hydrologic determinations to be made in assessing the probable impacts of flow diversions on riparian vegetation is whether flows are gaining or losing water to groundwater in the reach of interest. Flow measurements on eigh...
