Ans: A
A vesicostomy refers to a stoma created in the abdominal wall to the bladder. A ureteral stent is a thin catheter temporarily placed in the ureter to drain urine. A continent urinary diversion uses a piece of the intestine to create a bladder that can be catheterized. Bladder augmentation involves the use of a piece of the stomach or intestine to enlarge bladder capacity.
