Abstract
Entrapment of the bladder secondary to pelvic fracture is infrequently described in the literature. Entrapment has most commonly been found to occur through the actions of internal or external fixation. This case report presents bladder entrapment that was not detected until the patient developed genitourinary symptoms and dyspareunia 8 months after nonoperative treatment of a stable lateral compression pelvic fracture.
