The bladder exstrophy-epispadia complex (BEEC) includes malformations with midline closing defects of the lower abdomen and external genitalia. Long-term consequences with urinary incontinence and sexual dysfunction, in spite of multiple surgical interventions, are common and expected to affect the patient's health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The extent and the predictive factors are, however, not known. New patient-reported outcome research is emerging, but valid and reliable condition-specific HRQOL are still missing. The aim of this review is to summarize and discuss the latest published reports (2015-2019) on HRQOL in patients with the BEEC and its relationship to incontinence and sexual factors.
膀胱外翻-尿道上裂复合畸形(BEEC)包括下腹和外生殖器中线闭合缺陷的畸形。尽管进行了多次手术干预,但仍常见长期尿失禁和性功能障碍等并发症,这预计会影响患者的健康相关生活质量(HRQOL)。然而,目前尚不清楚这些并发症的严重程度和预测因素。新的患者报告结果研究正在出现,但仍缺乏有效的、可靠的针对该疾病的特异性 HRQOL 评估工具。本综述的目的是总结和讨论 2015 年至 2019 年期间发表的有关 BEEC 患者 HRQOL 及其与尿失禁和性功能因素关系的最新报告。
