| Résumé: | The patient was a 67-year-old woman who had undergone radical hysterectomy and postoperative radiotherapy for cervical cancer at the age of 46 years. Spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder occurred twice in 1997, and conservative treatment was performed on each occasion. She was admitted to our hospital for the third time of spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder. She underwent bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy because of panperitonitis and paralytic ileus. A review of 11 cases of recurrent rupture of the urinary bladder reported in Japan including the present case revealed that, patients who had been conservatively treated tended to be subject to recurrence. However, the risk of recurrence remains when a partial cystectomy is performed. Therefore, especially in recurrent cases, augmentation cystoplasty or urinary diversion should be considered as the treatment for spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder due to radiation cystitis |
