Abstract

We report a rare variant of exstrophy-epispadias complex, a duplicate bladder communicating with exstrophy bladder via a fistula. On presentation appeared to be a case of classical bladder exstrophy with diastasis of the pubis and rectus muscles, a low lying umbilicus and a form of epispadias. On careful examination phallus appeared normal with normal external urethral meatus.The micturating cysto-urethrogram was done which elicited a rare anomaly; duplicate bladder exstrophy.
