If your bladder and urethra are removed then it ca not be reversed.Usually urostomies are permanent trhough when I had my urostomy done there was agirl in her ealry 20's having hers reversed., She had gotten a urostomy as a child, so they left everything intact and just diverted things in hopes that wehn she got older they could cure her original problem. This was 20 years ago so I don't know what happened to her.
