ABSTRACT
Bladder exstrophy is a rare congenital malformation in which the anterior wall of the bladder is absent, and the posterior wall is exposed. Because of the poor prognosis, prenatal diagnosis is important. We present a case of bladder exstophy which was presented as a solid mass in the lower part of the fetal abdomen instead of fluid-filled urinary bladder, and confirmed at autopsy after termination of pregnancy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of bladder exstrophy prenatally diagnosed in the Korean literature.
