Abstract

Non-traumatic spontaneous rupture of the otherwise normal bladder is a rare occurrence. The literature is reviewed and 4 new cases are reported. Experimental data are presented and a theory is reviewed regarding the frequent intraperitoneal location of the rupture. The frequent paucity of symptoms compared to the high mortality rate is stressed.
