Bladder triplication associated with exstrophy variant

Abstract

A one-day old full-term female neonate presented with a duplicate bladder and exstrophy variant including a patch of exstrophic or ectopic mucosa, duplicate vagina, uterus, and two complete bladders. We report on the surgical management performed in this case and functional urinary results based on a synchronous urodynamic study of the duplicate bladders. To our knowledge, the occurrence of duplicate bladder exstrophy variant with complete urinary continence has not been previously reported.
