Pediatric Brain Injury Center

The Boston Children's Hospital Bladder Exstrophy Program specializes in the care of children with bladder exstrophy, a rare and complex birth defect in which the bladder is turned "inside out." As an established and dedicated program within the Department of Urology, our team has decades of experience performing surgeries and managing the care of patients with bladder exstrophy. In addition to our Urology team, care of children with bladder exstrophy is supported by experts in Anesthesiology, Radiology, Advanced Fetal Care and Orthopedics.

The Pediatric Radiology Department at Boston Children's Hospital combines individualized care, specialty expertise, and the most advanced technology to obtain the highest quality ultrasounds for children with images that provide the most accurate diagnoses for patients ranging in age from fetal life through young adulthood. Pediatric Ultrasound, which is also known as sonography, is a painless, non-invasive imaging technique that lets us look inside your child's body without the use of radiation. It uses high-frequency sound waves to create pictures of organs, muscles, soft tissues and blood vessels.

Boston Children's in Weymouth, MA has always embodied a culture of innovation and scientific discovery, with the goal of improving the lives of children and families. This legacy continues today as we lead the world in pediatric research, empowering our clinicians and scientists to challenge the status quo and seek better answers for children everywhere.
