[Traumatic rupture of the bladder. Apropos of 11 cases].
Eleven cases of rupture of bladder were observed within 7 years. Four of them were due to a direct trauma on a full bladder (group I), the other seven occurred during a complex trauma, constantly with a fracture of the pelvis (group II). In group I, the rupture was situated on the apex of the bladder. The symptoms were a suprapubic pain in four patients, a hematuria in two, and an anuria in one. In the four patients, intraperitoneal fluid was clinically evident, and confirmed ultrasonographically. An urography was performed in two patients and showed an intraperitoneal leak in our patient, and intravesical clots in the other one. The four patients were operated on within 48 hours, and were successfully treated by suture and vesical catheter. In group II, the vesical injury was revealed by hematuria (2 patients) hemorragic shock (2 patients) or both (2 patients). In the last patient, an abdominal pain after 10 days was the only symptom. Clinical signs of hemoperitoneum were present in only four patients and were confirmed ultrasonographically in two out of five patients. The urogram was normal in two of four patients. In one patient it showed a small bladder, and in another one a vesical leak. Five patients were operated on among where three in emergency and two after 9 and 10 days. Four patients with intraperitoneal rupture were successfully tread by suture of the bladder. Among three patients with extraperitoneal rupture, one had an additional tear of the mesentery and died from intravascular coagulation, the second was successfully treated by a suture, and the last one by a vesical catheter only.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
