[Reconstruction of the bladder neck in exstrophy of the bladder or epispadias using Young-Dee's method].

Young-Dees' method of bladder neck reconstruction is described. A material of 17 cases with complete or almost complete incontinence on account on a deficient sphincter who were submitted to this operative method is presented. It is concluded that the method can be recommended as the primary operation for incontinence, particularly in patients with exstrophy of the bladder or epispadias as satisfactory continence could be obtained in 60%. No deterioration of renal function was observed and the patients functioned well both socially and sexually.
