Exstrophy of the bladder

P White, R L Lebowitz

    Radiologic Clinics of North America
    |April 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Bladder exstrophy, a common anomaly, involves similar pelvic skeletal changes across related disorders. Untreated cases typically show normal kidney and urinary collecting systems, with a specific ureter appearance considered a normal variant.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Developmental Biology

    Background:

    • Bladder exstrophy is the most frequent anomaly within a spectrum of related congenital conditions.
    • These conditions share characteristic, though variable, pelvic skeletal alterations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize the typical presentation of bladder exstrophy and associated anomalies.
    • To clarify the status of renal and ureteral structures in untreated bladder exstrophy.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical presentations and imaging findings in patients with bladder exstrophy spectrum anomalies.
    • Analysis of pelvic skeletal morphology.
    • Assessment of renal function and urinary collecting system anatomy.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Pelvic skeletal changes are consistently observed across the spectrum, varying in severity but maintaining a similar pattern.
    • Kidney and urinary collecting system function are typically normal in untreated bladder exstrophy.
    • The "hurley" appearance of the lower ureters is identified as a normal physiological variant.

    Conclusions:

    • Bladder exstrophy and related anomalies present with predictable pelvic bone changes.
    • Renal and urinary tract normality is common in untreated exstrophy, suggesting localized developmental field defects.
    • The "hurley" ureteral finding does not indicate pathology and should be recognized as normal.
