According to the available information, a (b)(6) years old boy underwent a reconstructive long hypospadias-correction surgery.Next day an aa6106 catheter was placed; 5 hours after the catheter was placed, a nurse has determined, the balloon was deflated and the urethra again contracted.A further, several hours lasting surgery has been implemented on the same day and a new aa6106 was placed, the balloon was tested and considered to be good.Because on (b)(6) 2017 the patient has suffered from abdominal pain, an examination was done by a physician.A kidney congestion was determined and the catheter was found slip out from its formerly placed position (the balloon was deflated), which caused the urethra became contracted again.The nurse considers, the catheter could not be pulled out by the patient or other person, due to the presence of the tamponade.The surgeon expects potentially lifelong consequences and procedures e.G.Urethrotomian slit for the patient.It is probable the parents will claim for recourse/redress.
