Renal/GU - Diverticuli of Urinary Bladder
Caption
A middle aged male presented with lower abdominal pain and difficulty urinating. He also reported incomplete bladder emptying. POCUS demonstrated multiple bladder diverticuli that were subsequently confirmed on CT pelvis. Acquired bladder diverticula are often secondary to bladder outlet obstruction that may be related to an enlarged prostate, urethral stricture, or neurologic disease.
