A Comparison of the Monti and Casale (Spiral Monti) Procedures

In a large population of children and young adults we report durable and reliable long-term results with the Monti and Casale procedures, including continence at the stoma. The only significant difference noted between the 2 procedures was a higher incidence of subfascial revisions for umbilical stomas in each group. The need for subfascial revision is highest in spiral Monti channels placed in the umbilicus.
