Abstract
A small bladder plate is a common finding in the exstrophic complex. However, today it is usual practice to attempt closing at birth each exstrophic bladder encountered, even the very small ones. This principle was first emphazised by the John Hopkins’ Pediatric Urologists and later accepted by most worldwide.1
