A 27-year-old patient with congenital bladder exstrophy and recurrent pelvic organ prolapse: a case report.

We report a case of BE and POP in a 27-year-old nulliparous Caucasian. Due to the patient's strong fertility desire, considering her extensive surgical history background, our approach was to correct POP via the Manchester-Fothergill procedure. After 36 months, the patient was still asymptomatic with no evidence for prolapse recurrence. This case demonstrates diagnostic challenges and surgical dilemmas in treatment strategy for patients with BE and co-existent POP. Furthermore, routine long-term surveillance is necessary in terms of renal function, urinary continence, malignancy and possible obstetric issues. PMID: 33456128 [PubMed - in process]
