    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2002 Jun; 37(6):926-7. PubMed ID: 12037767.
    Abstract:
    Acute urinary retention is an uncommon diagnosis in childhood, and is associated with a variety of causes. Congenital bladder diverticula, occurring almost exclusively in boys, is not a rare entity. However, acute urinary retention is an extremely rare complication of congenital bladder diverticulum. A boy with acute urinary retention caused by obstructing bladder diverticula is presented, and the surgical approach is discussed.
