- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 56 year old man with 1 week history of worsening abdominal swelling and oliguria. According to the report, the examinations revealed that the patient had ascites, thus, his postoperative course had been initially uneventful, with catheter removal after 6 days. Moreover, flexible cystoscopy revealed a small perforation at the bladder dome. It was inferred that after 48 hours the patients blood urea and creatinine levels had returned to normal.
