86-year-old male with urinary retention presents for suprapubic bladder catheter placement. Ultrasound was provided during and for confirmation of suprapubic catheter placement. Preprocedural images demonstrate predominantly anechoic urine with small, echogenic foci representing debris in a normally distended bladder. After placement of the catheter the retention balloon is visualized within the lumen of the bladder.
