Abstract

Lower urinary tract diversion via an ileal conduit is not a contraindication to pregnancy and subsequent normal spontaneous vaginal delivery. This is true regardless of the etiology of underlying urologic dysfunction as long as maternal renal function and general health remain stable and obstetrical considerations of the underlying congenital abnormality of the patient do not preclude conception and delivery.
