A 26-year-old woman successfully delivered a baby via cesarean section after undergoing ileo-cystoplasty for interstitial cystitis. This case highlights successful pregnancy outcomes following reconstructive urinary surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Gynecology
  • Reproductive Medicine

Background:

  • Interstitial cystitis is a chronic bladder condition.
  • Ileo-cystoplasty is a surgical procedure to augment or replace the bladder using intestinal tissue.
  • Pregnancy following major urological reconstruction presents unique challenges.

Observation:

  • A 26-year-old female with interstitial cystitis underwent ileo-cystoplasty.
  • Two years post-surgery, the patient conceived and carried the pregnancy to term.
  • The delivery was managed via lower segment cesarean section (LSCS) at 36 weeks gestation.

Findings:

  • The patient successfully delivered a live infant.
  • The pregnancy and delivery were managed without apparent complications related to the prior ileo-cystoplasty.

  • This demonstrates the feasibility of successful pregnancy and delivery after ileo-cystoplasty for interstitial cystitis.

    • Implications:

    • This case suggests that ileo-cystoplasty may not preclude future successful pregnancies.
    • It underscores the importance of multidisciplinary care for pregnant patients with a history of major pelvic surgery.
    • Further research is warranted to establish optimal management protocols for pregnancy post-ileo-cystoplasty.
