Bladder Explosion during Transurethral Resection Surgery-Case Series
Journal Title: Journal of Surgery Research and Practice - Year 2022, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The explosion of the bladder or intravesical explosion is a rare but possible complication in Transurethral Resection (TUR) procedures. The chances of a bladder rupture occurring during TUR are approximately 0.02%. In all types of transurethral surgeries which involve diathermy, the possibility of bladder explosion remains. It can be in the form of a mucosal tear which is a simple or a deep rupture in the bladder. Immediate and quick intervention is important for repairing the bladder when this complication occurs. The initial cases of this complication were reported in 1926. Since then, there have only been thirty reports of such complications.
