    Author: Errando Smet C, Batista Miranda JE, Salinas Duffo D, Arañó Bertrán P.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1997 Dec; 50(10):1121-3. PubMed ID: 9494204.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of bladder neck suspensión with special reference to the complications associated with this procedure. METHODS/RESULTS: Herein we describe a patient who developed most of the reported associated complications following two bladder neck suspension procedures: bilateral ureteral ligation, osteitis pubis, retropubic hematoma, eventration and recurrence of urinary stress incontinence. Finally, after two reoperations, the complications were resolved and the patient is continent. CONCLUSIONS: Bladder neck suspension is usually associated with a low complication rate. However, associated complications may appear in the same patient, accounting for a significant morbidity.
