Extraperitoneal Urinary Bladder Rupture without Pelvic Fracture

[摘要] Background: The extra-peritoneal bladder rupture without a pelvic fracture is uncommon and rarely reported. Case Report: A 9 years old male child presented with pain abdomen and an external wound over inguinal region secondary to abdominal trauma by the bicycle handle. Patient was having stable vitals and urine was seeping out of external wound. Ultrasound showed a small rent in urinary bladder and CECT findings were conclusive of extra-peritoneal bladder rupture with no pelvic girdle disruption. Patient was managed by conservative treatment with bladder drainage by Foley’s catheter. Conclusion: The case is being reported to highlight the fact that bladder injury in children can be caused by trivial trauma.
