MORE ODDITIES


This baby has a large cystic hygroma-a congenital multiloculated lesion of lymphatic tissue. It can be difficult to excise completely. We operated and the surgery went well.

 This 7 year old has bladder exstrophy-a congenital condition where the bladder is outside the abdominal wall. He also has abnormalities of the penis. Surgery for this condition is highly specialized so I referred the patient to an expert in this area.
