Abstract

Iatrogenic bladder injury is a recognized complication of gynecologic surgery and may result in significant morbidity when associated with intraperitoneal perforation. Accordingly, open surgical repair is commonly required. We present a case of delayed iatrogenic bladder injury involving a foreign body and describe an innovative technique for conservative management.
