1/52. Spontaneous bladder rupture: rare cause of peritonitis.

    Spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder is an uncommon, but important, cause of generalized peritonitis. It is a surgical emergency which may be rapidly fatal if diagnosis and treatment are delayed. Bladder disease or obstruction, coupled with a sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure usually accounts for the rupture. Characteristic symptoms are acute lower abdominal pain followed by generalized peritonitis. In most cases, the rupture is intra-peritoneal.

3/52. Cyst-like chylous coagulum in the urinary bladder of a patient with recurrent chyluria.

    We report a rare case of recurrent chyluria in a 64-year-old man, who had undergone sclerosing therapy for chyluria with complete remission 40 years previously. The chyluria recurred 4 months before the present hospital admission. The patient presented with acute urine retention and weight loss of 6 kg during the past 6 months. urine biochemistry studies showed elevated concentrations of albumin (0.7 g/dL), globulin (0.6 g/dL), cholesterol (0.59 mmol/L), and triglyceride (0.89 mmol/L), confirming the diagnosis of chyluria. Intravenous urography showed a substantial filling defect in the urinary bladder. cystoscopy revealed milky urine flowing out of the right ureteral orifice, and a large chylous coagulum presenting as a cyst-like mass in the urinary bladder. The chyluria was successfully treated with sclerosing therapy with injection of 76% Urografin (Shering AG, berlin, germany) into the right upper urinary tract, and the chylous coagulum was evacuated endoscopically. No evidence of chyluria recurrence has been noted during a year of follow-up, and the patient has regained 6 kg of body weight. This particular presentation of chylous coagulum in a chyluria patient has not been previously reported in the literature.

4/52. Granulomatous renal pseudotumor in Wegener's granulomatosis: imaging findings in one case.

    Wegener's granulomatosis is a clinicopathological entity characterized by necrotizing granulomatous angiitis involving the upper- and/or lower respiratory tract and the kidneys. Renal involvement is usually characterized by a rapidly progressive necrotizing glomerulonephritis. A case is presented of a patient who developed renal failure and presented a solitary pseudotumoral lesion in the upper pole of the left kidney. Imaging characteristics on US, CT and MR imaging are discussed. The diagnosis was confirmed with ultrasound-guided needle biopsy.

5/52. Interstitial cystitis and ileus in pediatric-onset systemic lupus erythematosus.

    A girl aged 11 years presented with autoimmune hemolytic anemia with thrombocytopenia, and subsequently developed severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and pollakiuria. X-ray findings of her abdomen demonstrated paralytic ileus with intestinal wall thickening. Intravenous pyelography revealed bilateral hydroureter with mild hydronephrosis and contracted bladder. Pathological examination of her bladder revealed interstitial cystitis, with evidence of focal deposition of IgG and C3 in a granular pattern on small blood vessel walls. She was diagnosed as having systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) associated with paralytic ileus and chronic interstitial cystitis. Although initiation of high-dose prednisolone therapy resulted in a gradual improvement in clinical symptoms, reducing the dosage of prednisolone caused a relapse. To our knowledge, the combination of paralytic ileus and chronic interstitial cystitis is quite uncommon in pediatric-onset SLE.

6/52. Late second stage rupture of the uterus and bladder with vaginal birth after cesarean section: a case report and review of the literature.

    Rupture of a uterine scar during labor with concomitant severe injury to the maternal bladder has been reported sporadically. Previously reported cases have been diagnosed under a variety of conditions, commonly at the time of repeat Cesarean delivery. A case of maternal bladder rupture diagnosed following forceps-assisted vaginal delivery after Cesarean is presented. Severe bradycardia developed suddenly in the second stage of labor. Rupture of the uterine scar was diagnosed after sudden onset of severe lower abdominal pain with delivery of the placenta. At laparotomy, extensive injury to the bladder was found and successful repair of both injuries was performed. A review of previously reported similar cases with their mechanism of injury and presentation is presented. Serious maternal bladder injury at the time of uterine rupture remains a risk of attempted vaginal delivery after prior cesarean section.

7/52. Muellerianosis of the urinary bladder, endocervicosis type: a case report.

    This case reports muellerianosis of the urinary bladder, showing glandular lesions made up of endocervical type glands, in a 36-yr-old woman. The patient presented with lower abdominal discomfort and pain on voiding. The patient had undergone two Cesarean sections 5 yr and 3 yr earlier. On a pelvic ultrasonography, a well-circumscribed mass, 2.2x0.8 cm in dimension, was found with luminal polypoid projection in the posterior wall of the urinary bladder. The patient had a transurethral resection of the bladder mass. Histologically, the tumor was composed of irregularly shaped glands lined by endocervical mucous epithelium in the muscularis propria of the urinary bladder. Some glands exhibited cystic dilatation and contained mucinous secretions. The glands elicited no desmoplastic tissue reaction. The intraluminal mucin often contained polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The glands were mostly lined by tall columnar and bland looking mucous cells with mucin secretion. The ciliated cells were rarely observed. No endometrial component is noted. It would be appropriate to designate this lesion as "Muellerianosis of the urinary bladder, endocervicosis type". awareness of the lesion and attention to its typical histologic features should facilitate its crucial distinction from adenocarcinoma.

8/52. Bladder outlet obstruction after operation for ureterocele.

    Two patients with ureterocele-induced bladder outlet obstruction are presented. In each instance, a broad-based diverticulum had developed in the floor of the bladder as a result of the muscular defect created by a simple ureterocele in one patient and an ectopic ureterocele in the other. This bladder diverticulum produced secondary obstruction of the bladder outlet during the act of voiding. urinary diversion in one patient had been carried out because of bladder outlet obstruction and was being seriously considered in the other patient because of upper tract deterioration. After the correct diagnosis was established, reconstruction of the muscular defect eliminated the obstruction and reestablished satisfactory bladder function. urinary diversion was thus prevented in one patient and undiversion accomplished in another, when the true obstructing nature of the bladder diverticulum was established and correct therapy instituted.

9/52. Unusual bladder masses in children.

    Benign and malignant bladder masses in children are extremely rare pathologic lesions. The presentation can include gross hematuria, irritable or obstructive voiding symptoms, and urinary infection. We present 2 cases in which large bladder masses suspicious for malignancy were diagnosed as benign lesions. One patient presented with abdominal pain and frequency 2 weeks after a minor bicycle accident and had a bladder wall abscess with sterile urine. Another child presented with gross hematuria and was found to have a giant cystitis glandularis lesion with no precipitating event or infection. The evaluation and differential diagnosis are discussed, and a review of the literature is presented.

10/52. Megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome with bilateral duplicated systems.

    A 29-year-old multigravida woman presented for her second prenatal ultrasound evaluation at 30 weeks of gestation. The study showed a female fetus, bilateral duplicated systems with severe hydronephrosis in the upper pole moieties and a massively distended bladder. Initial interpretation suggested ectopic/obstructing bilateral ureteroceles. To evaluate these findings further, a prenatal magnetic resonance imaging scan was obtained, documenting the absence of ureteroceles. The presumptive diagnosis of megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome was made. After birth, contrast enema confirmed the presence of microcolon. This appears to be the first reported case of megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome with bilateral duplex systems evaluated with prenatal magnetic resonance imaging.
