PNEUMATURIA is a rare phenomenon. Spring and Hymes,1 in 1952, were the first to present a complete review of all cases of primary pneumaturia reported since 1860. Since that time several other cases have been described.2 3 4 5 Senator (1891), as cited by Kent,2 was the first to classify pneumaturia as fitting into three categories, as follows: pneumaturia after instrumentation of the genitourinary tract; pneumaturia caused by fistula formation between the intestinal or genital tracts, or both, and the urinary tract; and pneumaturia caused by fermentation — so-called primary pneumaturia (this can be associated either with or without glycosuria).The last group . . .Keywords
