Suprapubic catheters are used routinely for bladder drainage; however,complications are commonly reported. These complicationscould be attributed to surgical technique or the catheter itself.Complications related to surgical technique can be controlled andreduced, but catheter-related complications are unavoidable andunpredictable.
