Isolated and Tangential Bladder Perforation in Gunshot Injury: A Case Report

Abstract

Approximately 3.6% of abdominal gunshot injuries result in urinary bladder damage. However, damage to the nearby organs frequently goes along with bladder injuries brought on by a gunshot wound. One must expect two injury sites in a urinary bladder gunshot wound because failure to close one site may lead to severe complications. In the present study, the case of a 30-year-old male patient with an isolated bladder injury with a single perforation after being shot in the left iliac fossa is presented and discussed based on the literature.
