Hello,
The distended bladder can be from various issues as
- Bladder outflow obstruction from prostate enlargement, urethra
narrowing or others.
- Bladder pathology in the form of a tumor or others.
I recommend undertaking to follow up consultation with the ultrasound report.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
