Bladder Exstrophy
Bladder Exstrophy is a birth defect in which the bladder forms outside the fetus. There are three different types of the disorder that vary in severity, most commonly affecting the urinary tract, the digestive system, and reproductive organs.
The Mayo Clinic Definition
The Mayo Clinic has a wonderfully comprehensive definition of all three types of Bladder Exstrophy. You’ll have access to suggested treatments, short-term and long-term complications, and statistics on who is likely to have it.
Seattle Children’s Hospital
To this day, when I do my own research into Bladder Exstrophy online, Seattle Children’s Hospital has the most informational web page dedicated to the condition. After receiving top-notch care there as a child, I highly recommend reaching out to this team for help.
