Timely Treatment

Emphysematous cystitis (EC) is a rare bladder infection characterized by the presence of gas in the wall or cavity of the bladder. Most patients with EC will present with the typical symptoms of cystitis (e.g. frequent micturition, urgent micturition and dysuria), but other signs include distension and pain in the lower abdomen, drum sounds on percussion and a large amount of gas in the bladder. There can also be other complications such as sepsis. However, it is usually characterized by the typical symptoms of infection combined with pneumatinuria, the passage of gas mixed with urine. The early stage of EC is mostly limited to the submucosa and the symptoms of infection can be mild. Some patients may have no obvious clinical symptoms. If the infection becomes severe, it may result in difficulty urinating and kidney dysfunction. Therefore, timely treatment of these rare bladder infections is essential. This current case report describes an 80-year-old female patient with severe EC complicated by significant bilateral ureteral dilatation, bilateral renal cortical atrophy and sepsis. The patient was successfully treated with antibiotics and surgery. This report provides clinical data, test results and treatment experience that might be useful for clinicians that are involved in the treatment of EC.

Intravesical formalin is a known treatment for control of hemorrhagic cystitis caused by multiple etiologies in humans and dogs. This case report documents the successful use of intravesical formalin for the treatment of severe hemorrhagic cystitis that occurred secondary to emphysematous cystitis in a diabetic dog. In addition, a review of emphysematous cystitis and the use of intravesical formalin in human and veterinary medicine is discussed. Formalin instillation into the urinary bladder is an option for life-threatening, refractory cases of hemorrhagic cystitis; but clinicians must be familiar with the proper technique and be aware of potential complications prior to its use.
