Emphysematous cystitis in an elderly male diabetic patient: a case report. A complicated urinary tract infection
Emphysematous Cystitis (EC) is a rare form of complicated urinary tract infection, characterized by the presence of gas in the bladder and in its wall. Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is the major risk factor. Clinical manifestations in EC can range from asymptomatic form to severe sepsis and fatal events. Abdominal imaging is requested to diagnose EC and evaluate its severity. Early diagnosis and appropriate management improve the outcome. We report a case of incidental EC diagnosis in an 82-yearold diabetic male who was investigated for severe anemia.
