title: A new method for creating the bladder flap.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Bladder flaps are commonly created during routine cesarean deliveries and often require multiple steps that increase operating time and expose the surgeon to inadvertent injury.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  We report a simple method of creating a bladder flap that eliminates the need for multiple instrument handoffs and repositioning.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The simplicity of this method allows the surgeon decreased operative entry time while decreasing exposure to injuries from multiple instrument handoffs during bladder flap development.
