EDITORIAL COMMENT: Usually we do not accept anecdotal case reports for publication. Chambers twentieth century dictionary defines an anecdote as ‘a short narrative of an incident of private life’. Readers can decide if this case is anecdotal. There appears to be a lot left unsaid about this woman's private life, if not her private pans. She was admitted to hospital as a nonbooked emergency case in labour. The symphyseal separation shown in figure 2 clinched our decision to accept the case for publication. The editor did not see such a case in 38 years of obstetrics practice.Summary: Bladder exstrophy is an unusual congenital anomaly. Patients becoming pregnant with such anomaly after surgical repair are even rarer. The present case reports a lower segment Caesarean section delivery of a living healthy baby in a woman who had been operated on for bladder exstrophy at the age of 18 years. This is the first case of this type seen in our institution in 35 years.

Patient-Reported Impact of Pelvic Organ Prolapse on Continence and Sexual Function in Women With Exstrophy-Epispadias Complex2017 •
This study aimed to characterize long-term urogynecologic issues of women with a history of bladder exstrophy and pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and to assess the impact of POP repair on continence and sexual function. Patient demographics and surgical history related to exstrophy and POP were collected through chart review. Patient perceptions regarding sexual function, urinary continence, and quality of life were assessed through Web-based administration of validated questionnaires: International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form and POP-Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire. Maryland, United States. Review of a single-institution exstrophy-epispadias complex database resulted in 25 adult female patients with a history of POP treated at the authors' institution. Eleven patients participated and were included in the analysis. Urinary continence and sexual function. All participants underwent surgical repair for prolapse, with 7 (63.6%) ...

To determine the outcomes of pregnancy and cesarean delivery (CD) in women with neuropathic bladder (NB) and pediatric lower urinary tract reconstruction (LUTR) as these women often have normal fertility and may become pregnant. We reviewed consecutive patients with NB due to spinal dysraphism who underwent LUTR, became pregnant, and had a CD at our institution from July 2001 to June 2016. We collected data on demographics, hydronephrosis, symptomatic urinary tract infection, continence, and catheterization during pregnancy. CD data included gestational age, abdominal or uterine incisions, and complications. We identified 18 pregnancies in 11 women. Fifteen live newborns were delivered via CD (53.3% term births). Thirteen of 15 patients (86.7%) developed new (10) or worsening (3) hydronephrosis. Six of 13 patients (46.2%) underwent nephrostomy tube placement. Eight of 15 patients (53.3%) developed difficulty catheterizing (66.7% via native urethra, 44.4% via catheterizable channel);...

Pregnancy and delivery in a patient with a Studer orthotopic ileal neobladder2016 •
Pregnancies in patients after cystectomy with urinary diversion, especially after the construction of a continent urinary reservoir, are rare. Experience in this field is limited and mainly concerns patients with congenital disorders, neurogenic diseases or trauma. In this paper, we report the outcome of pregnancy, delivery and the postpartum period in a 27-year old woman with a Studer ileal orthotopic neobladder after radical cystectomy, performed after the diagnosis of a malignant tumor at the age of 14.

Bladder Exstrophy from Childhood into Adult LifeExstrophy of the bladder is rare and the incidence of bladder exstrophy is calculated to be from 1 per 30 000 to 50 000 live births with male to female ratio ranging from 1.5-5 to 1 1-4 It was found that persistence or overgrowth of the cloacal membrane on the lower anterior abdominal area, prevents normal mesenchymal ingrowth. This causes divergence of the lower abdominal muscular structures and forces the genital ridges to fuse caudal to the cloacal membrane. The stage of ingrowth of the urorectal septum at the time of rupture determines whether one will produce an exstrophic urinary tract alone (classic bladder exstrophy or epispadias) or cloacal exstrophy with the hindgut interposed between the hemibladders5,6.
