Management of pregnancy after augmentation cystoplasty [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2015
We report a case of successful pregnancy following augmentation ileocystoplasty in a patient with a neurogenic bladder dysfunction. A review of the literature reveals incidences of premature delivery and renal dysfunction. Careful urological monitoring of such patients should result in a successful pregnancy.
