What is Epispadias?
Epispadias is a rare congenital condition in which the urethra (the tube carrying urine) opens on the upper side of the penis in boys or near the bladder in girls, instead of its normal position. It may occur alone or as part of the exstrophy-epispadias complex.
Surgery is the standard treatment to correct the urinary opening, improve bladder function, and restore genital appearance.
Symptoms
- Abnormal urinary opening on the upper side of the penis (boys)
- Abnormal urethral opening in the clitoris or bladder neck (girls)
- Urinary leakage or incontinence
- Curved or shortened penis (boys)
- Recurrent urinary tract infections
- Cosmetic concerns with genital appearance
Causes & Risk Factors
The exact cause is not fully understood, but contributing factors include:
- Developmental anomaly during fetal growth
- Genetic predisposition in some cases
- More common in boys than girls
- Sometimes associated with bladder exstrophy
Diagnosis of Epispadias
At Curis Life, Andheri West, our evaluation includes:
- Physical examination to determine type and severity
- Ultrasound to assess bladder and kidneys
- Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) to study urine flow
- MRI/CT scan in complex cases
- Assessment for associated anomalies
Treatment: Epispadias Repair Surgery
The surgical goal is to create a functional urinary channel, restore bladder control, and improve appearance.
Surgical approaches include:
- Primary epispadias repair: Reconstructing the urethra and repositioning it normally.
- Bladder neck reconstruction: For children with urinary incontinence.
- Phalloplasty: Correcting penile curvature or length in boys.
- Single-stage or staged procedures: Based on severity and associated anomalies.
Whenever suitable, we use minimally invasive pediatric surgery techniques for better recovery and outcomes.
