Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Enterocystoplasty, a common bladder augmentation technique, carries risks associated with intestinal resection and urinary tract incorporation.
  • Meningomyelocele often leads to bladder dysfunction, including low capacity, urinary incontinence, and severe vesicoureteral reflux.
  • Existing augmentation methods present significant complications, necessitating alternative surgical approaches.
