Abstract
|
|
|
|
Bladder diverticulum develops as herniation of bladder mucosa between defects of bladder smooth muscle fibers. Being different from the acquired bladder diverticulum secondary from infravesical obstruction, congenital diverticulum is caused by a congenitally deficient bladder wall. The standard of diagnosis is voiding cystourethrogram, which will reveal possible accompanying vesicoureteral reflux. We report on a case of bladder diverticulum misdiagnosed as ureterocele and treated surgically with the correction of accompanying vesicoureteral reflux.
