  • Title: [Emphysematous cystitis in a patient with renal transplant].
    Author: González-Martín V, Rodrigo E, Arias M, Lastra P.
    Journal: Nefrologia; 2008; 28(1):110-1. PubMed ID: 18336145.
    Abstract:
    We describe a renal transplant patient who developed an abdominal pain in the hypogastrium area and a urinary tract infection. An abdominal RX, and later, a computerized tomography showed an air collection in the bladder wall. Emphysematous cystitis is a rare complication of the urinary tract infection, more frequently in patients with diabetes mellitus. It is important to treat it since the beginning, so we can avoid several complications.
