Yashoda Hospitals Advances Care for Rare Congenital Condition with Modern Reconstruction of Exstrophy-Epispadias Complex
Hyderabad, 14th April 2026: Yashoda Hospitals continues to set benchmarks in advanced pediatric urology with its comprehensive management of Exstrophy-Epispadias Complex (EEC), one of the most challenging congenital anomalies affecting the urinary bladder, urethra, genitalia, and pelvic structures. Leveraging cutting-edge surgical techniques and a multidisciplinary approach, the hospital is delivering improved outcomes and quality of life for children born with this rare condition.
EEC requires highly specialized surgical reconstruction, often performed in stages and tailored to each child’s anatomy. At Yashoda Hospitals, the focus is on early intervention, ideally within the first 72 hours of life to ensure optimal bladder development, reduce infection risks, and improve long-term continence outcomes. The surgical protocol includes bladder closure, abdominal wall repair, and pelvic osteotomy, performed in collaboration with expert pediatric orthopedic surgeons.
Highlighting the institution’s expertise, Dr. Mallikarjuna Reddy N, Senior Consultant in Urology & Robotic Surgery and Clinical Director at Yashoda Hospitals, Hitec City, Hyderabad, said, “Exstrophy-Epispadias Complex demands precision, experience, and a coordinated multidisciplinary approach. In the last 22–25 years, worldwide, more than 1.7 exstrophy-epispadias complex surgeries performed have been considered in high-volume centers. We at Yashoda Hospitals do 4 cases on average in a year. Our emphasis is on early complete closure, preservation of renal function, and achieving socially acceptable continence, while also ensuring the child’s long-term physical and psychological well-being.”
With advancements in surgical care, many children undergoing treatment for EEC at Yashoda Hospitals achieve significant improvements in urinary continence, renal function, and body image. The hospital also manages complex redo surgeries, offering hope to patients who may have experienced complications or incomplete correction elsewhere.
Yashoda Hospitals underscores the importance of long-term follow-up in these cases, including monitoring bladder capacity, kidney health, and developmental milestones. Through a collaborative team of pediatric urologists, orthopedic surgeons, neonatologists, and rehabilitation specialists, the hospital ensures holistic care, empowering children with EEC to lead healthy, confident, and fulfilling lives.
