Abstract
Bladder injury is a well-known complication of laparoscopic surgeries, especially in procedures that involve adhesiolysis, which aims to restore normal anatomy and function. The occurrence of bladder injury during laparoscopic surgery varies between 0.02% and 8.3%, with a greater risk in cases with extensive adhesions, particularly those involving the bladder and nearby structures. Awareness of risk factors, adherence to careful surgical techniques and prompt management of injuries are essential to ensure successful outcomes and minimise patient morbidity. We present the case of a 41-year-old multiparous woman diagnosed with moderate hemoperitoneum who sustained an inadvertent bladder injury during emergency diagnostic laparoscopy which was successfully managed laparoscopically.
