RATIONALE FOR EARLY NEONATAL RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION OF BLADDER EXTROPHY WITHOUT OSTEOTOMY

Abstract

Bladder exstrophy (BE) remains one of the most severe malformations in pediatric urology. Traditional multi-stage surgical approaches, which involve delayed intervention (after 2-3 months of age) and traumatic pelvic osteotomy, are associated with a high risk of severe complications, including complete wound dehiscence. Therefore, the search for less invasive and biomechanically sound approaches is highly relevant.
