Patient's question:
I came across a child who suffers from bladder exstrophy. Such a young child getting this disease, aside from the significant cost involved, the key issue is that the child will experience great pain, and the parents will also endure the pain. I don't have much understanding of the situation in this regard. I want to prevent this from happening to my baby in the future, so I am specifically seeking advice on preventive measures.What assistance I need: I saw that other people's children have bladder exstrophy. How can this be prevented?
Doctor's answer:
All surgical repairs and plastic surgeries for this condition aim to completely restore the anatomical morphology observed during postmortem examination and protect renal function. All surgical repairs and plastic surgeries for this condition aim to completely restore the anatomical morphology observed during postmortem examination and protect renal function, while suppressing urination. However, the surgical procedures are numerous and must be implemented in stages according to the patient's age and physical condition. Therefore, in addition to early surgery, the complexity of the surgery and the possibility of success should not be overlooked. Parents should mentally prepare, closely cooperate with doctors and nurses, and enhance careful observation and care.
