Cesarean Section Complications Followed by Bladder Cystotomy and Gross Hematuria Due to Unknown Dense Scar Tissue

Adhesions formed from previous Cesarean section (C-section) are a significant risk factor for bladder injury. We present a case of a 43-year-old pregnant woman who underwent a C-section and experienced severe complications due to adhesions and incisional dehiscence from a previous Cesarean delivery...

Sumario:Adhesions formed from previous Cesarean section (C-section) are a significant risk factor for bladder injury. We present a case of a 43-year-old pregnant woman who underwent a C-section and experienced severe complications due to adhesions and incisional dehiscence from a previous Cesarean delivery 11 years earlier. Several surgical and non-surgical interventions as radiologic tests, cystotomy, blood transfusion, cystogram, and others were necessary to resolve the issues followed by the Cesarean delivery. It is important for clinicians caring for women undergoing both primary and subsequent Cesarean sections to consider and mitigate risk factors for adhesion development.
