Abstract
Pseudo-exstrophy of bladder is an uncommon condition characterized by the major musculoskeletal defects without urinary system defects. A two-day-old female neonate was presented with pseudo-exstrophy of the bladder and unilateral renal agenesis- A rare combination of two anomalies. She was born at 37 weeks gestational age with caesarean section delivery. The X-ray of hip revealed pubic diastasis. Ultrasonography clearly showed absence of the left kidney with a normal right kidney. The patient was treated successfully with proper surgical management. We, hereby, report a rare variant case of pseudo-exstrophy of bladder with lower set umbilicus and infra-umbilical midline of lower anterior abdominal wall defect in a neonate who was born in Shahid Sadoughi Hospital, Yazd, Iran.Entities:
