  • Title: [Intraluminal Aspect of Femoro-femoral Cross-over Bypass Graft Mimics Bladder Stone].
    Author: Sonak I, Wiedemann A, Heppner HJ.
    Journal: Aktuelle Urol; 2016 Apr; 47(2):148-51. PubMed ID: 26881873.
    Abstract:
    Iatrogenic bladder perforation with delayed diagnosis and treatment in the context of the placement of a vascular prosthesis, e.g. a femoro-femoral cross-over bypass graft, is extremely rare. This is emphasised by the present publication, which is the second published case study worldwide. To identify such a situation is very important because there is a risk of inappropriate treatment if such a bypass complication remains undetected, and the potential complications of an improperly intended "treatment of a bladder stone" may be deleterious or even lethal. Therefore, the involved disciplines should be aware of this possibility in order to initiate relevant diagnostic measures, especially diagnostic cystoscopy, without any delay if symptoms such as voiding disorders or alguria coincide with vascular bypass grafting.
