Abstract

We present a case of a 67-year-old woman who was initially treated conservatively for pelvic fracture. After 4 weeks, she was admitted to our clinic with swelling and pain in the distal part of her right thigh. Ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging showed accumulation of fluid between the subcutaneous adipose tissue and fascia. Urine was detected by a puncture. Bladder injury was detected in the left anterolateral wall using computed tomography. A fistula tract was observed from the right side of the bladder neck in cystogram, which confirmed the diagnosis of vesicocutaneous fistula. Bladder drainage was achieved using a urethral catheter, and the fistula was closed without any complication. The control cystogram showed healing of the bladder. All the patients with pelvic fractures should be evaluated by urine analysis and examined for associated urethral or bladder injury using retrograde urethrography and cystography.
