Objective:
To present our experience of laparoscopic repair of iatrogenic bladder perforation.
Material And Methods:

Results:
The operation time ranged from 25 to 60 min. There were no intra- or postoperative complications. The average duration of hospitalization was 4 days and the recovery time was < or =12 days.
Conclusion:
Laparoscopic repair of iatrogenic bladder perforation is a valuable alternative to open surgery.
