Abstract:
Female epispadias is a rare genitourinary anomaly characterized by urinary incontinence and typical appearance of the external genitalia. Traditional surgical approaches have involved a staged genitoplasty and interval bladder neck reconstruction. We describe further experience of a promising single-stage technique using a cystoscopically guided bladder neck plication via a perineal approach with combined genitoplasty.
