Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Urinary diversion refers to the creation of a new pathway for urine to exit the body when the urinary bladder is removed. This may involve rerouting the ureters to an external opening or creating a new bladder-like structure using a portion of the intestine. Bladder diversion and renal pathway are not accurate terms for this procedure, and renal tubule is a structure within the kidney, not a pathway for urine to exit the body.
