    Extraperitoneal bladder rupture can occur without pelvic fractures, suggesting a different injury mechanism. This alternative etiology, similar to intraperitoneal rupture, may explain bladder injuries even with pelvic fractures.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Trauma Surgery
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Extraperitoneal bladder rupture is typically associated with pelvic fractures.
    • The classic mechanism involves shearing forces transmitted through the pelvic ring.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of extraperitoneal bladder rupture without pelvic girdle disruption were identified.
    • These cases challenge the traditional understanding of the injury mechanism.

    Findings:

    • A mechanism analogous to intraperitoneal bladder rupture may cause extraperitoneal injury.
    • This alternative mechanism can be responsible for bladder rupture even with coexisting pelvic fractures.

    Implications:

    • Revises the understanding of bladder rupture etiology.
