Bladder Exstrophy
Table of Contents
General Information
Someone with bladder exstrophy is born with their urinary bladder exposed; either through an open abdominal wall, or outside of the body. Someone with bladder exstrophy usually also has an open pelvis, resulting from the pubic bones not joining together. This can cause genital differences.
The body of someone with bladder exstrophy and XY chromosomes often has a micropenis with epispadias and undecended testes.
The body of someone with bladder exstrophy and XX chromosomes often has a widly spaced labia (due to the wide spacing of the pubic bones), and epispadias.
