Emphysematous cystitis in an elderly Japanese patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus

We report a rare but fatal case of emphysematous cystitis (EC) that presented as a typical image of gas bubbles within the urinary bladder wall on computed tomography (CT). This disease has a high mortality rate more than that reported previously based on recent literature review in Japan.
