Generalized peritonitis secondary to spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder in a diabetic patient: A case report

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder (SRUB) secondary to emphysematous cystitis(EC) in diabetic patients is extremely rare. Clinical presentations are often non-specific and display the signs and symptoms of peritonitis. The diagnosis is usually made after explorat...

description INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder (SRUB) secondary to emphysematous cystitis(EC) in diabetic patients is extremely rare. Clinical presentations are often non-specific and display the signs and symptoms of peritonitis. The diagnosis is usually made after exploratory laparotomy. CASE REPORT: A 70-year-old diabetic woman presented to the emergency department with sudden diffuse abdominal pain and hematuria of six hours duration. Physical examination revealed generalized peritonitis. Multi-slice abdominal and pelvic CT scans showed free air and fluid in the abdominal cavity. After proper resuscitation, the patient was transferred to the operating room for exploratory laparotomy. A 2 cm full-thickness bladder rupture was noted at the dome of the bladder, which was repaired. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: We noticed free air in the urinary bladder wall postoperatively in the CT scan, which is the radiological sign of EC. The Pathology result was in concordance with the diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: SRUB in patients with poorly controlled diabetes and EC is highlighted in this case study. Urinary bladder rupture secondary to EC should be considered When a diabetic patient with a history of urinary symptoms presents with an acute onset of abdominal pain suggestive of peritonitis. Uneventful recovery from SRUB is dependent on early diagnosis and treatment.
