Hello Anon
Thank you for writing.
Humans can live without many organs/body parts and the bladder is one of them. If it needs to be removed, a urostomy is done, during which they'll receive an external bag to collect urine. A bit like a colostomy bag but for urine.
March 7, 2018 - 12:27pmBladder transplants are now available too.
Best,
Susan
