It is imperative for patients to be counselled on the risks of channel complications, including stomal stenosis, recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI), and, less commonly, incontinence. Endoscopy of the Mitrofanoff (Mitrofanoscopy), is a diagnostic tool employed in these scenarios to visualize the channel and bladder. Herein, we aim to characterize the findings of Mitrofanoscopy and establish whether this leads to a change in surgical management.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A single centre, retrospective review of diagnostic Mitrofanoscopy performed to assess for channel complications between January 2023 and January 2025.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Of 140 procedures, 83 diagnostic procedures were analyzed. The overall diagnostic yield (defined as the presence of one or more positive findings) was 55.4%. This was highest when performed for difficulty with catheterizing the channel (74.3%), and lowest for channel leak (22.2%). 34.9% (\n                      <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200929) of patients required a change in surgical management, including channel dilatation (32.5%), superficial revision (13.8%), complete revision of the Mitrofanoff channel (27.6%), fistula repair (3.4%) and\/or repeat Mitrofanoscopy for lithotripsy (3.4%), biopsy, bladder washout or surveillance of benign lesions (13.8%).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings can be used to better inform patients during the consenting process by providing more accurate expectations regarding diagnostic yield and downstream management.
