Case Report-Splenic rupture following idiopathic rupture of the urinary bladder presenting as acute abdomen
Idiopathic rupture of the urinary bladder is an uncommon condition and
represents less than 1% of all bladder rupture cases. In most of the
cases the main etiological factor was heavy alcohol ingestion. A
combined injury of the spleen and bladder is a very rare condition that
is almost often associated with trauma and foreign bodies. In this
paper we present the extremely rare clinical course of acute abdomen
caused by a combined spontaneous intraperitoneal injury; spontaneous
rupture of the urinary bladder and spleen. According to our opinion,
spontaneous bladder rupture caused by bladder distension due to alcohol
ingestion led to urinary ascites and abdominal distension. Finally,
repeated minor abdominal blunt trauma during everyday life, to a
moderately distended abdomen caused a spontaneous splenic rupture in
the patient with abnormal coagulation studies
