Fetal Bladder Extrophy (FBE) is a rare congenital anomaly with male predominance. The scarcity in the literature about the prenatal diagnosis of FBE cases limited a detailed counseling for parents. This research will be the largest case series that will provide a comprehensive review of cases and it will be the first from Canada. This study is a prospective review of all FBE cases from three Toronto hospitals: Sunnybrook, Mount Sinai Hospital and Sick Kids Hospital over a 10 year period.
