G O Borrero et al. Urol Radiol. 1987.

Abstract

Suprapubic cystostomy catheters are an important tool for the management of patients who require urinary drainage. Although complications occur after the procedure, they are usually minor. A case of acute obstruction at the ureterovesical junction caused by a suprapubic cystostomy catheter tip is presented.
