When the bladder is empty, it is protected from injury from a blow to the lower abdomen by the bones of the pelvis. As it fills, the top of the bladder rises into the abdomen and makes it more vulnerable to be ruptured. In the child, the pelvic bones are not fully developed and so it is more easily injured than in the adult. If the force of the impact is great enough to fracture the bones of the pelvis, the bladder may be injured even if it is empty. Bullets or knives can also injure the bladder despite its level of fullness.
