Bladder mucosal tears during voiding cystourethrography in chronic renal failure

Urologic radiology volume 8, pages 81–84 (1986)Cite this article

Abstract

We report 6 patients with chronic renal failure who developed contrast intravasation/extravasation during voiding cystourethrography. Two patients underwent cystoscopy and were noted to have diffuse mucosal tears, but had normal appearing bladder mucosa on follow-up inspection. None of the patients experienced symptoms or clinical sequelae. Pathophysiological changes in the chronically unused bladder which predispose it to mucosal injury are considered.
