Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Neurosurgery

Background:

  • Spontaneous bladder rupture, without trauma, is uncommon and typically reported in adults.
  • Previous cases in patients with neuropathic bladders involved prior surgical interventions like augmentation cystoplasty or catheter injury.

Observation:

  • This report details a rare instance of spontaneous bladder rupture in a pediatric patient.
  • The patient presented with a neuropathic bladder secondary to spina bifida.

Findings:

  • The rupture occurred in an intact bladder without any history of trauma or prior surgical procedures.
  • This case challenges previous assumptions about the pathogenesis of spontaneous bladder rupture in pediatric patients with neuropathic bladders.

Implications:
