PELVIC FLOOR ANATOMY IN CLASSIC BLADDER EXSTROPHY USING 3-DIMENSIONAL COMPUTERIZED TOMOGRAPHY: INITIAL INSIGHTS

We present the pelvic floor anatomy of the major pelvic floor musculature in classic bladder exstrophy, including the levator ani, obturator internus and obturator externus. By improving our knowledge of pelvic floor anatomy we hope to understand better the relationship of the pelvic floor to the bony anatomy as well as the role of osteotomy in changing pelvic floor anatomy to enhance urinary control after surgery.
