Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Emphysematous cystitis is a rare clinical entity.
  • It is most commonly associated with diabetes mellitus and urinary tract infections.

Observation:

  • A 46-year-old nondiabetic female patient presented with symptoms suggestive of emphysematous cystitis.
  • The patient had a recent history of brain contusion.

Findings:

  • The case presented is a rare instance of emphysematous cystitis in a nondiabetic individual.
  • The onset of the condition followed a brain contusion, suggesting a potential link.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of potential triggers for emphysematous cystitis beyond typical risk factors.
  • Further research may elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms connecting neurological injury and bladder inflammation.
