Bladder Exstrophy
Epispadias
A birth defect due to malformation of the URETHRA in which the urethral opening is above its normal location. In the male, the malformed urethra generally opens on the top or the side of the PENIS, but the urethra can also be open the entire length of the penis. In the female, the malformed urethral opening is often between the CLITORIS and the labia, or in the ABDOMEN.

Cloaca
A dilated cavity extended caudally from the hindgut. In adult birds, reptiles, amphibians, and many fishes but few mammals, cloaca is a common chamber into which the digestive, urinary and reproductive tracts discharge their contents. In most mammals, cloaca gives rise to LARGE INTESTINE; URINARY BLADDER; and GENITALIA.
Bladder exstrophy in a neonate at risk of transient myasthenia gravis: a role for remifentanil and epidural analgesia. (1/48)
Infants born to mothers with myasthenia gravis may exhibit a transient form of the disease, with similar sensitivity to non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs. We report the case of an infant at risk who required major surgery when 48 h old for closure of bladder exstrophy. A combined epidural-general anaesthetic technique, with remifentanil supplementation, enabled us to avoid unnecessary neuromuscular blocking drugs and prolonged intensive care, which had been anticipated. The potential benefits of remifentanil and epidural analgesia in neonates are discussed. (+info)Life-threatening hypokalaemia and quadriparesis in a patient with ureterosigmoidostomy. (2/48)
We report quadriparesis as a result of severe hypokalaemia and acidosis in a 50-year-old man who had undergone ureterosigmoidostomy for bladder extrophy 48 years earlier. Aggressive suppletion with intravenous potassium and bicarbonate combined with potassium-sparing diuretics and ACE inhibitors resulted in complete restoration of the serum potassium and resolution of the neurological symptoms. The underlying mechanism as well as the treatment of hypokalaemia and hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis after ureterosigmoidostomy are briefly discussed.

Bladder exstrophy is a rare anomaly, it compromises bladder functions, and in males it occurs with an impairment of reproductive functions, because of erectile and ejaculatory deficit. Advancements in the surgical treatment of bladder exstrophy have allowed an improvement of the bladder functions while spontaneous conception is still impaired. This is a case report of a pregnancy and subsequent birth of twins following testicular sperm extraction, on a man born with classical bladder exstrophy with infertility due to an ejaculation. (+info)New sonographic finding for the prenatal diagnosis of bladder exstrophy: a case report. (4/48)
Bladder exstrophy is a very rare congenital malformation in which the anterior wall of the bladder is absent, and the posterior wall is exposed externally. Although sonographic findings of bladder exstrophy have been documented, we report a case presenting with a solid mass in the lower fetal abdomen with umbilical arteries running alongside the mass. The relationship between umbilical arteries and bladder exstrophy is a new sonographic finding which may be helpful in the prenatal diagnosis of this condition. (+info)The OEIS complex (omphalocele-exstrophy-imperforate anus-spinal defects): recurrence in sibs. (5/48)
The OEIS complex comprises a combination of defects including omphalocele, exstrophy of the cloaca, imperforate anus, and spinal defects. It may represent the most severe manifestation of a spectrum of birth defects, the exstrophy-epispadias sequence. The OEIS complex affects 1 in 200,000 to 400,000 pregnancies and is of unknown cause. The purpose of the current report is to document the occurrence of OEIS in sibs from separate pregnancies and suggest that some cases may have a genetic basis. (+info)Discordant sexual identity in some genetic males with cloacal exstrophy assigned to female sex at birth. (6/48)
BACKGROUND: Cloacal exstrophy is a rare, complex defect of the entire pelvis and its contents that occurs during embryogenesis and is associated with severe phallic inadequacy or phallic absence in genetic males. For about 25 years, neonatal assignment to female sex has been advocated for affected males to overcome the issue of phallic inadequacy, but data on outcome remain sparse. METHODS: We assessed all 16 genetic males in our cloacal-exstrophy clinic at the ages of 5 to 16 years. Fourteen underwent neonatal assignment to female sex socially, legally, and surgically; the parents of the remaining two refused to do so. Detailed questionnaires extensively evaluated the development of sexual role and identity, as defined by the subjects' persistent declarations of their sex. RESULTS: Eight of the 14 subjects assigned to female sex declared themselves male during the course of this study, whereas the 2 raised as males remained male. Subjects could be grouped according to their stated sexual identity. Five subjects were living as females; three were living with unclear sexual identity, although two of the three had declared themselves male; and eight were living as males, six of whom had reassigned themselves to male sex. All 16 subjects had moderate-to-marked interests and attitudes that were considered typical of males. Follow-up ranged from 34 to 98 months. CONCLUSIONS: Routine neonatal assignment of genetic males to female sex because of severe phallic inadequacy can result in unpredictable sexual identification. Clinical interventions in such children should be reexamined in the light of these findings. (+info)Using color Doppler sonography to identify the perivesical umbilical arteries: a useful method in the prenatal diagnosis of omphalocele-exstrophy-imperforate anus-spinal defects complex. (7/48)
OBJECTIVE: To describe the different prenatal sonographic findings in 3 cases of omphalocele-exstrophy-imperforate anus-spinal defects (OEIS) complex, or cloacal exstrophy. METHODS: Three patients with OEIS complex were examined by sonography. In 2 (cases 2 and 3) of the 3 cases, color Doppler sonography was applied to the area of cord insertion and the abdominal mass to determine the origin of the abdominal mass. RESULTS: Three cases of OEIS complex with different sonographic appearances are included in this series. An absent bladder without an abdominal mass but with bowel floating in the amniotic cavity was revealed in case 1; an absent bladder with a lower anterior abdominal mass was found in the second trimester in case 2; and a large cystlike mass located in the anterior abdominal wall was found in case 3. Color Doppler imaging showed that the abdominal mass originated from the urinary bladder in cases 2 and 3; therefore, OEIS complex was presumptively diagnosed antenatally in these cases. In all cases, OEIS complex was confirmed postnatally. CONCLUSIONS: Omphalocele-exstrophy-imperforate anus-spinal defects complex should be considered in patients with an absent bladder combined with either an anterior abdominal wall mass or defects. Special attention should be given to search for other combined anomalies. We suggest that color Doppler sonography for identifying the perivesical umbilical arteries is a very useful method in establishing of the diagnosis of OEIS complex. (+info)A combined vertical and horizontal pelvic osteotomy approach for repair of bladder exstrophy: the Dana experience. (8/48)
BACKGROUND: Bladder exstrophy is a severe congenital defect that requires a multidisciplinary treatment approach. Soft tissue repair may be successful during the first few days after birth, but a combination of pelvic osteotomies and bladder reconstruction is necessary later in life. The combination of externally fixed anterior and posterior osteotomies has biomechanical advantages over previous techniques for achieving primary bladder closure. OBJECTIVES: To describe our experience with a combined vertical and horizontal pelvic osteotomy approach for the repair of bladder exstrophy. METHODS: Four children underwent bladder exstrophy closure; the mean age at surgery was 19 months (range 9-33 months)... We stabilized the osteotomies with a small Synthes AO external fixator, 4.0 mm rod diameter. RESULTS: All four patients had successful bladder repair with no dehiscence; two of them achieved partial continence, and bladder neck reconstruction is planned for the other two. Three of the four patients sustained neurologic injury; two completely recovered, and the third continues to suffer from right drop foot. The average follow-up was 39 months (range 10-60 months). CONCLUSIONS: Vertical and horizontal pelvic osteotomies stabilized by external fixator and bladder repair is an effective treatment for bladder exstrophy. (+info)Bladder exstrophy is a congenital abnormality where the bladder is exposed outside the body through an opening in the lower abdominal wall, due to the failure of the anterior abdominal wall and bladder to properly form during embryonic development.
Bladder exstrophy is a congenital birth defect that affects the urinary and reproductive systems, as well as the abdominal wall. In this condition, the bladder is not fully formed and is turned inside out and exposed on the outside of the body at birth. This results in the inability to control urination and can also lead to other complications such as infection and kidney damage if left untreated.
Bladder exstrophy occurs due to a problem with the development of the fetus during pregnancy, specifically during the formation of the lower abdominal wall. It is more common in boys than girls, and can occur on its own or as part of a spectrum of defects known as the exstrophy-epispadias complex.
Treatment for bladder exstrophy typically involves surgical reconstruction to repair the bladder and lower abdominal wall. This may be done in stages, starting with the closure of the abdominal wall and then followed by bladder reconstruction at a later time. In some cases, additional surgeries may be necessary to address other associated defects or complications. With proper treatment, most children with bladder exstrophy can lead normal lives, although they may require ongoing medical management and monitoring throughout their lives.
Epispadias is a rare congenital abnormality where the urethra in males or females opens on the dorsal (upper) side of the penis or vulva, instead of its usual location at the tip of the penis or inside the vaginal opening.
Epispadias is a rare congenital abnormality of the urinary tract in which the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body) does not develop properly. In epispadias, the urethral opening is located on the dorsal (top) surface of the penis instead of at the tip. This condition usually affects boys, but it can also occur in girls, although this is much less common.
Epispadias can vary in severity and may be associated with other genitourinary abnormalities, such as bladder exstrophy, in which the bladder is located outside the body. Treatment for epispadias typically involves surgical reconstruction to create a functional urethra and improve urinary continence. The timing of surgery depends on the severity of the condition and whether it is associated with other abnormalities.
The musculoskeletal system is an organ system that comprises the body's muscles, bones, cartilages, tendons, ligaments, and other connective tissues, working together to provide form, stability, support, movement, and protection to the body.
The Musculoskeletal System is a complex system composed of the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and associated tissues that work together to provide form, support, stability, and movement to the body. It serves various functions including:
1. Protection: The musculoskeletal system protects vital organs by encasing them in bones, such as the ribcage protecting the lungs and heart, and the skull protecting the brain.
2. Support and Movement: Muscles and bones work together to enable movement and maintain posture. Muscles contract to pull on bones, causing joint motion and producing movements like walking, running, or jumping.
3. Storage: Bones act as a reservoir for essential minerals like calcium and phosphorus, which can be released into the bloodstream when needed.
4. Hematopoiesis: Within the bone marrow, hematopoietic cells produce blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
5. Endocrine Function: Bone tissue is also an endocrine organ, producing hormones like osteocalcin and FGF23 that regulate various physiological processes, such as energy metabolism and mineral homeostasis.
Dysfunctions or injuries in the musculoskeletal system can result in conditions like arthritis, fractures, muscle strains, tendonitis, and other painful or debilitating ailments that impact an individual's quality of life and mobility.
The pelvis is the lower part of the trunk, situated between the abdomen and the lower limbs, and composed of four bones: ilium, ischium, pubis, and sacrum, which provide attachment for muscles and serve as a strong protective bony basin for the viscera, particularly the reproductive and intestinal organs.
The pelvis is the lower part of the trunk, located between the abdomen and the lower limbs. It is formed by the fusion of several bones: the ilium, ischium, and pubis (which together form the hip bone on each side), and the sacrum and coccyx in the back. The pelvis has several functions including supporting the weight of the upper body when sitting, protecting the lower abdominal organs, and providing attachment for muscles that enable movement of the lower limbs. In addition, it serves as a bony canal through which the reproductive and digestive tracts pass. The pelvic cavity contains several vital organs such as the bladder, parts of the large intestine, and in females, the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes.
Urologic surgical procedures are operations performed on the urinary system or male reproductive organs, including minimally invasive and open surgeries, to treat various conditions such as kidney stones, cancer, infertility, incontinence, and structural abnormalities.
Urologic surgical procedures refer to various types of surgeries that are performed on the urinary system and male reproductive system. These surgeries can be invasive (requiring an incision) or minimally invasive (using small incisions or scopes). They may be performed to treat a range of conditions, including but not limited to:
1. Kidney stones: Procedures such as shock wave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy are used to remove or break up kidney stones.
2. Urinary tract obstructions: Surgeries like pyeloplasty and urethral dilation can be done to correct blockages in the urinary tract.
3. Prostate gland issues: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), simple prostatectomy, and robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy are some procedures used for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate cancer.
4. Bladder problems: Procedures such as cystectomy (removal of the bladder), bladder augmentation, and implantation of an artificial urinary sphincter can be done for conditions like bladder cancer or incontinence.
5. Kidney diseases: Nephrectomy (removal of a kidney) may be necessary for severe kidney damage or cancer.
6. Testicular issues: Orchiectomy (removal of one or both testicles) can be performed for testicular cancer.
7. Pelvic organ prolapse: Surgeries like sacrocolpopexy and vaginal vault suspension can help correct this condition in women.
These are just a few examples; there are many other urologic surgical procedures available to treat various conditions affecting the urinary and reproductive systems.
An osteotomy is a surgical procedure that involves the precise cutting and reshaping of bone tissue, often performed to correct skeletal deformities, align joints, or redistribute weight-bearing stresses in cases of arthritis or joint injury.
Osteotomy is a surgical procedure in which a bone is cut to shorten, lengthen, or change its alignment. It is often performed to correct deformities or to realign bones that have been damaged by trauma or disease. The bone may be cut straight across (transverse osteotomy) or at an angle (oblique osteotomy). After the bone is cut, it can be realigned and held in place with pins, plates, or screws until it heals. This procedure is commonly performed on bones in the leg, such as the femur or tibia, but can also be done on other bones in the body.
A cloaca is a common cavity in some animals, including birds and reptiles, that results from the fusion of the anterior rectum, genital duct, and urogenital sinus during embryonic development, and serves as a single opening for the excretion of feces, urine, and sometimes gametes.
A cloaca is a common cavity or channel in some animals, including many birds and reptiles, that serves as the combined endpoint for the digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Feces, urine, and in some cases, eggs are all expelled through this single opening. In humans and other mammals, these systems have separate openings. Anatomical anomalies can result in a human born with a cloaca, which is very rare and typically requires surgical correction.
The urinary bladder is a hollow, muscular, and distensible organ that serves as a reservoir for storing urine until it is expelled from the body through the process of micturition or urination.
The urinary bladder is a muscular, hollow organ in the pelvis that stores urine before it is released from the body. It expands as it fills with urine and contracts when emptying. The typical adult bladder can hold between 400 to 600 milliliters of urine for about 2-5 hours before the urge to urinate occurs. The wall of the bladder contains several layers, including a mucous membrane, a layer of smooth muscle (detrusor muscle), and an outer fibrous adventitia. The muscles of the bladder neck and urethra remain contracted to prevent leakage of urine during filling, and they relax during voiding to allow the urine to flow out through the urethra.
