Bladder Exstrophy: A rare case report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
The bladder exstrophy (BE) represents an anterior midline defect with variable expression comprising a spectrum of anomalies involving the abdominal wall, pelvis, urinary tract, genitalia, and occasionally the spine and anus. The vast majority of BE cases are classified as non-syndromic and the etiology of this malformation is still unknown. We are presenting a case report on BE. A 11 year old patient presented with continuous dribbling of the urine from the lateral side of a soft tissue mass present in the lower abdominal wall with inability to hold and pass urine. The lesion was present since birth. On examination a soft tissue mass was present in lower abdominal wall with two opening on the either sides. Penis was short with unremarkable scrotum. Testis was not palpated in the scrotum. Combined investigation - IVP, CECT and USG revealed pubic diastasis with externally placed bladder with deficient anterior bladder wall, bilateral ectopic ureteral opening and chronic cystitis with undescendant testis.
