PEREZ ROMERO, N. et al. Spontaneous extraperitoneal bladder perforation in an elderly patient with genitalia prolapse. []. , 32, 4, pp.464-466. ISSN 0210-4806.

There are many etiologic reasons which explain the bladder perforation. Bladder injuries happen most commonly in poli-traumatisms (traffic accident), blunt trauma, penetrating injury and iatrogenic injury (surgery, laparoscopic…). However, there is not always a vigorous, direct, extern and blunt agent causing the rupture. In the case reported the extraperitoneal bladder rupture started after a smooth perineal injury caused when the patient seated down. The patient already suffered from a cystocele III/IV plus uterine prolapse for a long time ago.
