Abstract:
From 1980 to 1986, 32 patients had suffered from bladder rupture. Among these patients 14 were due to direct blow, 10 due to traffic accident, 2 due to slip down, 1 due to falling down, and unknown origin was seen in 4 cases. We evaluated these patients with age, sex, presence of pelvic bone fracture, urologic sign and symptom, size and site of ruptured bladder due to blunt trauma.
