Clinical Trial: Kidney Function in Patients With Bladder Exstrophy

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Unknown status
Study Type: Observational

Official Title: Evaluation of Long-term Renal Function in Patients After Surgical Repair of Classical Bladder Exstrophy

Brief Summary: Patients with classical bladder exstrophy undergo many surgical interventions with secondary urinary tract infections complicating their course. lately primary definitive surgical correction of this congenital anomaly has been implemented with satisfactory results. Although bladder exstrophy patients are born with normal kidneys, infectious and mechanical surgical complications can potentially damage their kidneys in the long-term. therefore we decided to evaluate renal function in the long-term in these patients.

Current Primary Outcome: Renal function [ Time Frame: 1 day (last visit ) ]

Creatinine and GFR estimation , proteinuria, albuminuria will be assessed as measures of renal function as well as renal mass estimation through renal size as by ultrasound and in certain cases through dimercaptosucicnic acid (DMSA)renal scan


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
