Bladder diverticula and Menkes' syndrome

HT Harcke Jr, MA Capitanio, WD Grover and M Valdes-Dapena

Multiple unusual diverticula of the bladder were observed in 3 of 4 children with Menkes' syndrome. This abnormality of the bladder in children with the kiky hair syndrome has only recently been recognized. The diverticula are best visualized on cystographic studies. The clinical manifestation which led to roentgen evaluation of the urinary tract in the 3 children was urinary tract infection or urine retention. Though the etiology of these diverticula is unknown, evidence is presented to suggest that they are acquired.
