“…The penis is often aplastic and bifid, and sometimes entirely absent. Cloacal exstrophy in the newborn used to be fatal until Rickham (1960) reported the first surviving case as a result of new surgical techniques. Since then, the rate of survival of such infants into childhood, adolescence, and adulthood has greatly increased, but there is still very significant morbidity and substantial mortality.…”

Gender Identity Outcome in Female-Raised 46,XY Persons with Penile Agenesis, Cloacal Exstrophy of the Bladder, or Penile Ablation

This review addresses the long-term gender outcome of gender assignment of persons with intersexuality and related conditions. The gender assignment to female of 46,XY newborns with severe genital abnormalities despite a presumably normal-male prenatal sex-hormone milieu is highly controversial because of variations in assumptions about the role of biological factors in gender identity formation. This article presents a literature review of gender outcome in three pertinent conditions (penile agenesis, cloacal exstrophy of the bladder, and penile ablation) in infancy or early childhood. The findings clearly indicate an increased risk of later patient-initiated gender re-assignment to male after female assignment in infancy or early childhood, but are nevertheless incompatible with the notion of a full determination of core gender identity by prenatal androgens.

“…Although cloacal exstrophy was recognized as early as 1909, it was not until 1960 that the first successful reconstruction was reported. [3] It is only in recent decades that repair of this complex anomaly has been routinely undertaken. For years, most infants were allowed to die because of the multiplicity and complex nature of the congenital anomalies.…”

Postnatal management and outcome of anterior abdominal wall defects

The spectrum of abdominal wall defects includes exomphalos (omphalocoele), gastroschisis, and bladder and cloacal exstrophy. These congenital anomalies are readily recognised on a prenatal ultrasound scan. A raised maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) should also prompt an ultrasound examination looking specifically for these anomalies, as well as neural tube defects. The influence of prenatal diagnosis on the peri- and postnatal management and outcome is still the subject of debate. Most published work relies on patient numbers too small to be of use statistically. Attempting to draw objective conclusions is made difficult because published series come from units with differing facilities and levels of expertise in the many professional groups involved in the management of these often complex anomalies.
