An unusual bladder/cloacal exstrophy with urachal exstrophy.

The authors report a previously unpublished association of bladder exstrophy with cleft lip, exomphalos, Meckel's diverticulum imperforate anus, and a large urachal mass protruding below the umbilicus. The baby underwent surgical repair of the condition and the postoperative recovery was uneventful. None of the theories formulated to explain the embryogenesis of bladder exstrophy can explain these findings. The abnormality is within the bladder exstrophy/cloacal exstrophy spectrum.
