  • Title: Suprapubic micturition cystourethrography in infancy and childhood.
    Author: Omogbehin B, Willich E.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1975 Jan 24; 3(1):20-3. PubMed ID: 1241917.
    Abstract:
    Suprapubic bladder puncture has recently found additional employment in paediatric radiology as a technique for micturition cystourethrography. Experience of 247 micturition cystourethrographies (MCU) by means of suprapubic bladder puncture (SBP) in 210 children aged from 6 days to 15 years is reported. The technique is simple: complications were observed in 6%, but were harmless in nature. The advantages consist in the absolutely sterile procedure, less strain on the children, and the possibility of simultaneously obtaining bladder urine, directly, for bacteriological and cytological examination.
