I would like to express my gratitude to the nursing staff at Sava Memorial Hospital.

I would like to express my gratitude for my son’s surgery to everyone involved. Dr. Djinovic from Sava Memorial Hospital is a great professional, he has golden hands. I am happy that we chose him and went to him. He is incredibly sensitive to all patients, very attentive, and from our first meeting he gave us confidence and peace of mind. We are very happy with the result. It is a happiness to see a great result. Dr. Tamara (children’s pediatrician) is very affectionate and always ready to listen and answer all questions. This is so important when you are in another country with a child and need clarity and a complete picture. All the nurses are so caring and treat every patient with such warmth and care. I would like to express my special thanks to Natalia, through whom I corresponded with the doctor. Despite the huge amount of work, Natalia was always in touch, always tried to help and find a way out of the situation. I will not get tired of thanking all of you! Thank you very much!

About the surgery itself. Before the operation the child was given a relaxing syrup, without stress took the child to the operating room. After 2.5 hours the child was brought asleep in the room. Waking up was easy. There were no side effects from the anesthesia. The child did not vomit, an hour later there was an appetite. The food in the clinic is excellent. Before the operation they specify all your preferences. Painkillers were not taken. The next day after the examination of the surgeon and all the doctors were able to check out and independently go to the apartments. We are very satisfied with the result, everything is very neat. I think the recovery will be very easy thanks to all the staff of the clinic. It is a happiness to see your child healthy and happy! Thank you all very much! I am very grateful to everyone for the work done! With great love, Asiya from Kazakhstan.

I would like to leave a review about Natalia’s work.
I could not sign up my child for surgery to Dr. Radosh, there were problems with the response and appointment of the date of surgery. We are from Vladivostok.
Natalia promptly responded and arranged a date for the surgery, as well as transferred all our examination directly to the clinic.
We were given a date for a pediatrician’s appointment and a surgery date.
I think this is a great administrative job that helps patients get to the clinic quickly.
Thank you Natalia.❤

I would like to thank the urological surgeon Radosh Jinovic. He performed the surgery on my son very well and at a high level, the appearance of the penis has completely changed. And most importantly – there are no more problems with urination! Although we had a very pronounced epispadias and had to enlarge the urethra. Now my son is doing well, but he still remembers the hospital and the fact that he did not pee like he does now. Thank you Dr. Jinovic and the staff of Sava Memorial Hospital that this difficult time in our lives has passed and my boy is now healthy!

I would like to express my gratitude to Experts-medikal, especially to our doctor Nika. My daughter needed an operation in Serbia, with Dr. Rados Dzhinovich. Nika helped us by coordinating with the clinic and the doctor, and fully supported us from preparation to the operation, and even after the operation. She is a very kind and sincere person, and a professional in her field. During this time, she has become like family to us, always supporting us. I highly recommend Experts-medikal to anyone who has questions about choosing a clinic.

Thank you very much Experts-medical, and thank you very much Nika!

What is epispadias?

epispadias treatment in serbia Epispadias is a malformation of the urethra.

The disease is characterized by partial or complete splitting of the upper wall of the urethra. The disease can occur in people of both sexes.

In addition to the defect of the external genitalia, manifested by such serious violations:

urination with splashing of urine and often incontinence;
sexual dysfunction in adulthood, associated with painful erections and difficulty in sexual intercourse;
frequent urinary tract infections.

How does epispadias occur?

Urethral malformation is a congenital disease that is not common. According to the Cleveland Institute, epispadias is diagnosed in 1 in 117,000 male infants and 1 in 484,000 female children.

In most cases, epispadias occurs against a background of other congenital urologic problems, including exstrophy. Children with exstrophy are born with the bladder located outside the abdomen.

What is total epispadias?

Total epispadias is the most severe form of this condition and is always accompanied by urinary incontinence. It borders on bladder exstrophy, in which the anterior wall of the bladder and the adjacent part of the abdominal wall are missing.

In both boys and girls, there is a divergence of the brow bones.

World practice in the diagnosis of epispadias

diagnosis of epispadias Symptoms of epispadias can be detected by a pediatrician in the process of examining the child. First of all, it is associated with external anomalies of the genitals. It can also be accompanied by frequent infections of the genitourinary system.

Abroad, and in particular in the leading hospital in Serbia, where epispadias is treated, the disease is diagnosed by means of examinations:

blood tests to check electrolyte levels;
intravenous pyelogram (IVP) – a special X-ray of the kidneys, bladder and ureters;
MRI and CT scans, depending on the patient’s condition;
pelvic x-rays;
ultrasound of the genitourinary system.

Accurate diagnosis allows you to choose the safest and most effective method of epispadias treatment.

What is the goal of epispadias treatment?

Epispadias is treated only surgically. The goal is to form a normal urethra and eliminate urinary incontinence. Serbian surgeons achieve an aesthetic effect by performing plastic surgery of the external parts of the genitals.

Doctors choose the methods of urethra formation depending on the sex of the patient and the form of epispadias.

In boys, straightening of the penis and lengthening of the urethra are performed. In girls, reconstruction involves bringing the clitoris together and moving the urethra into the correct position.

If necessary, in children of both sexes, bladder neck plasty is performed with the formation of a bladder sphincter to eliminate urinary incontinence.

Surgeries for boys for epispadias

There are two types of surgical treatment used by doctors in foreign clinics. Both operations provide a normal appearance of the sexual organ with preservation of all functions.

Modified Cantwell technique

Cantwell-Ransley surgery involves reconstruction of the penis. In order to move the urethra to a more normal position, intervention on parts of the penis is required.

Mitchell Technique

Mitchell surgery involves completely disconnecting the penis and then connecting it back together. This is done so that the urethra is in its most functional and normal position and the dorsal curvature (chordia) is corrected.

Surgery for girls for epispadias

Reconstruction in girls is less complicated than in boys. If diagnosed at birth, the two parts of the clitoris can be joined and the urethra placed in its normal position.

If the problem is not diagnosed early or treated early, urinary incontinence can be corrected surgically as soon as it is discovered. If older girls or young women have a narrow vaginal opening, reconstruction is performed after puberty.

Why do patients prefer epispadias treatment in Serbia?

There is a specialized medical center in Belgrade, which performs complex interventions for the treatment of the genitourinary system. Sava Memorial welcomes patients of all ages.

The clinic’s leading doctor is the world-renowned surgeon and urologist Radoš Jinović. The team of specialists under the direction of Djinovic performs reconstructive surgeries of any complexity on patients from different countries.
