PEDIATRICS FOREIGN BODIES IN THE BLADDER
Abstract
This article presents two clinical cases of foreign bodies (FBs) in the bladder of adolescents of both sexes. The purpose of this publication is to draw the attention of pediatricians, pediatric surgeons, and urologists to the rare localization of FBs in children and adolescents, where clinical manifestations are typically minimal (e.g., painful urination). Accompanying changes in urine tests are nonspecific. A more thorough collection of medical history, especially in pre-pubertal and pubertal patients, significantly facilitates the diagnostic process.
