Abstract

Spontaneous bladder rupture is a rare condition, and its diagnosis has evolved over time. The clinical presentation is variable and nonspecific, with prognosis depending on the patient's condition and early recognition. We report a case of spontaneous bladder rupture complicated by abdominal wall gangrene managed in our center. The purpose of this report is to update the knowledge available on this disease.
