Abstract
Cases [10] of rupture of the urinary bladder in children are presented. Only 1 patient was a girl. The rupture was caused by a road accident in 6 cases and occurred spontaneously in 4. Rupture of the bladder may be difficult to diagnose. In many patients the vesical rupture is not the only abnormality in the urinary tract and a thorough investigation is necessary. The majority of the bladder ruptures in these children were intraperitoneal, which contrasts with the reported experience in adults.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
