Bladder Rupture Presented with Acute Abdominal Pain and Renal Dysfunction: A Postpartum Emergency Case Report

Abstract

<strong>Background:</strong>Spontaneous bladder rupture is a rare condition, and almost all the reported cases in the world have been preceded by bladder dysfunction, radiotherapy, urinary tract obstruction, pelvic surgery, inflammation, and malignancy.<br /> <strong>Case report: </strong>In this study, we present the case of a 39-year-old woman (G: 4, P: 1, Ab: 2) who was in week 38 of pregnancy and attended our hospital with the onset of labor pain. She gave birth to a 3200 g infant through normal vaginal delivery. The patient attended with severe abdominal pain and oliguria four days after delivery. Ultrasonography showed massive abdominal fluid and bladder rupture.<br /> <strong>Conclusion: </strong>Regarding the rareness of bladder rupture during vaginal delivery, we introduced a case of bladder rupture following delivery. This case is important for midwives and gynecologists to gain more information about normal vaginal delivery complications to accelerate diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.
