Popis: |
Bladder exstrophy (BE) is a rare congenital disorder causing bladder and urethral malformation due to an abdominal wall embryological defect. Traditionally, BE had a poor life expectancy, but advances now offer a normal lifespan. A 57-year-old male with BE history and ureterosigmoidostomy repair presented with intractable hematuria, urethral discharge, and recurrent prostatic infections. He underwent retropubic subtotal prostatectomy without major complications, resolving urinary symptoms. Advances in BE management extend patient lifespans. This case demonstrates successful surgical management of hematuria and urethral discharge through radical prostatectomy in an adult with a history of BE. |
