Abstract

|
An inguinal hernia is common in pediatric age. However, an in injury to the bladder during hernia repair is quite rare, which may be related to the lack of awareness of the inguinal canal anatomy or inadequate exposure. Gross hematuria and voiding difficulty after herniorrhaphy may indicate a possible injury. Cystography can define the presence and type of injury. An extraperitoneal bladder injury can be managed safely by catheter drainage, antibiotics, and close clinical observations. An intraperitoneal injury requires surgical exploration and bladder closure. We report a case of a urinary bladder injury that was detected after the completion of herniorrhaphy in an eight-year-old girl. (J Korean Surg Soc 2006;71:315-318)
