Abstract
We report on a woman who presented with urinary incontinence, covered exstrophy and an abdominal mass. Radiographic studies and cystoscopy c onfirmed that the anterior abdominal mass did not communicate with,the bladder or colon and that the gastrointestinal tract was normal. Subs equent surgical resection of the mass and Young-Dees-Leadbetter bladde r neck reconstruction were performed. Histological examination of the mass revealed colonic mucosa. The etiology of the covered exstrophy an d sequestered colonic remnant is discussed.
