  • Title: Spontaneous rupture of the bladder: an uncommon finding on excretory urography.
    Author: Brijs S, Oyen R, Brijs A, Swinnen E.
    Journal: J Belge Radiol; 1992 Dec; 75(6):486-8. PubMed ID: 1294578.
    Abstract:
    A case of recurrent intraperitoneal bladder rupture is reported. Tearing occurred after minor trauma in a woman who had suffered a fracture of the pelvic rim 6 years earlier. Spontaneous rupture of the bladder is rare. The symptoms of an intraperitoneal bladder rupture may suggest intestinal disease and intravenous urography may be misleading. A retrograde cystogram is required to obtain the diagnosis.
