Rare case of superior vesical fissure with hypospadias: variants of classic bladder exstrophy

The outcome in these cases of continence and renal function is better, as no bladder neck is involved and bladder capacity and compliance are good. Animal models of the exstrophy–epispadias complex summarized that agenesis of the dorsal part of the cloacal membrane may form the basis of congenital m...

Summary:The outcome in these cases of continence and renal function is better, as no bladder neck is involved and bladder capacity and compliance are good. Animal models of the exstrophy–epispadias complex summarized that agenesis of the dorsal part of the cloacal membrane may form the basis of congenital malformations of cloaca-derived orifices, such as hypospadias, epispadias, bladder, and cloacal exstrophy, double urethra, and cloacal membrane agenesis, although hypospadias is not described with exstrophy bladder.2 Hypospadias associated with an exstrophy variant is rare, with only one prior report that is associated with pseudo-exstrophy.
