Abstract
A case of spontaneous intraperitoneal bladder rupture that was spontaneously healed
in a one-year-old girl is reported. The subsequent drainage of the contrast medium
in the peritoneal cavity via the urethral catheter after retrograde cystography implies
that such a rupture may be successfully treated by a urethral bladder drainage and
antibiotics.
