ABSTRACT
Suprapubic catheters provide a durable form of long-term bladder drainage. Few cases of catheter displacement have been reported. We report a series of three patients with suprapubic catheter displacement following catheter changes, with varying clinical presentations and sequelae. Early suspicion of catheter displacement in patients with suprapubic catheters presenting with undiagnosed sepsis or abdominal pain, can lead to timely radiological diagnosis and treatment.
