Bladder injury and uroascites from umbilical artery catheterization
Pediatrics.
1986 Mar.
Abstract
Umbilical artery catheterization in the newborn can lead to perforation of the bladder or urachal remnant with extravasation of urine into the peritoneal cavity. We present a case of such an injury that led to uroascites and respiratory distress. This injury usually requires prompt surgical repair for resolution.
