| Summary: | Bladder diverticula can be congenital or acquired in children. In this study, we present three male patients with congenital bladder diverticulum who underwent laparoscopic diverticulum excision. The main presenting symptoms of the patients were abdominal pain and urinary tract infection. Two patients also had vesicoureteral reflux. Postoperatively, symptoms associated with the urinary system disappeared in all patients. Laparoscopic diverticulum excision is preferred as an effective surgical method in children. |
