How are bladder exstrophy and its related conditions treated?
Exstrophy of the bladder requires surgical repair. The treatment plan devised for your child will depend on the type and the extent of the abnormality. Just as no two exstrophy children are exactly the same, no two treatment plans will be the same. The surgical care of the child with exstrophy has evolved significantly, and research continues with the goal of correcting the defect and achieving continence with one single procedure.
