Abstract
Most intraperitoneal bladder injuries require a formal laparotomy for repair. With the rapid assimilation of laparoscopic techniques into urological surgery, procedures that otherwise would have included a standard open operation are now being performed on an endo-cavitary basis. A case is described of an intraperitoneal bladder rupture incurred during endoscopic surgery, which was successfully managed laparoscopically with significant benefits to the patient.
