| | urinary bladder overdistension | Explanation: Globo means "ball, globe": the urinary bladder may be perceived by palpation as a ball into the abdomen.
I do not know if an English corresponding term exists: usually I have found "overdistension"
Urinary retention and bladder overdistension may be missed surprisingly easily in the postoperative period especially with the altered sensorium that occurs with anesthetic and postoperative pain medications -
