Classical Exstrophy Epispadias Complex with Orthotopic Umbilicus: A Contradiction with a Blessing

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Classical bladder exstrophy (CBE) is characterised by a hallmark anatomical sign of the low-lying umbilicus. We report a case of CBE exhibiting a normally placed umbilicus. This anatomical variation contradicts the usual low-lying umbilicus in CBE and may offer favorable cosmetic and surgical implications.
