Urinary tract infection, obstruction and fistulation are the three commonest urological complications following radical treatment of cervical carcinoma. Special trends in treatment are discussed. Long-term results confirm the value of using a bladder flap in cases of reimplantation of the ureter into the bladder. Formation of a unilateral or bilateral "psoastip-bladder" (bipartition of the bladder) is described and active surgical management is recommended in cases of operable recurrent cervical carcinoma involving the urinary tract.
