The patient was born with bladder exstrophy and underwent multiple surgeries for its correction. Finally, she had ureterosigmoidostomy at the age of 9 years, which ultimately led her to live till reproductive age. The children born with this defect are capable of surviving till adult life. She was received by us with preterm labour, referred from Hafizabad. She also had hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and mild hydronephrosis. She was managed with multidisciplinary, modified care but the pregnancy ended up in an emergency cesarean section due to non-reactive cardiotocograph and persistently reduced fetal movements. She had fortunately successful pregnancy outcome. To the authors'knowledge, this is the first reported case of pregnancy in a treated case of ectopia vesicae in Pakistan.
