The Mitrofanoff procedure, also known as an appendicovesicostomy, can help children with conditions such as spina bifida, neurogenic bladder or bladder exstrophy, may have trouble emptying their bladder.<\/p>\n<p>The Mitrofanoff procedure creates a channel from your child\u2019s bladder to a small hole in their abdomen. When it\u2019s time to urinate, your child, parent or caregiver connects a thin catheter (tube) to the hole and empties their bladder. Children with a Mitrofanoff channel don\u2019t need to wear a bag or diapers. Connecting the catheter to the Mitrofanoff channel is easier and more comfortable than placing a catheter into the urethra.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about the Mitrofanoff procedure: https:\/\/www.childrenscolorado.org\/doctors-and-departments\/departments\/urology\/tests-services\/mitrofanoff-procedure\/?utm_source=youtube&#038;utm_medium=social&#038;utm_campaign=slr_surgery_urology<\/p>\n<p>Connect with Children\u2019s Colorado:<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/childrenscolo<br \/>\nFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/childrenshospitalcolorado<br \/>\nTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChildrensColo<br \/>\nLinkedIn: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/children&#8217;s-hospital-colorado<br \/>\nPinterest: https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/childrenscolo\/<br \/>\nWebsite: http:\/\/www.childrenscolorado.org<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2dRuPtY_HlY\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mitrofanoff procedure can give your child bladder control and independence by creating a new way for urine to exit their body.
