Abstract
- In genitourinary trauma, the bladder is the second most common injury site. The majority of patients are injured by traffic accident. Injuries associated with bladder trauma are usually pelvic and rib fracture, but diaphragmatic rupture is rare. If bladder injury is suspected, diagnosis is made by a retrograde cystogram in most cases. However, if the patient complains of dyspnea, erect chest PA view or chest CT scan should be evaluated. We experienced a case of intraperitoneal bladder rupture combined with diaphragmatic rupture without other internal organ injury in a 68-year-old woman.
