RESUMEN
Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) is the most important pathogen of nongonococcal urethritis. C. trachomatis was detected by cell culture, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 145 patients with nongonococcal urethritis. In 5 of 63 antibiotic-treated patients, C. trachomatis was identified by at least one method. C. trachomutid was identified in 34 (41.5%) of 82 nontreated patients. The most common symptom of the 34 patients was painful urination. C. trachomafir was identified in 6 cases (17.6%) of 34 patients by cell culture. And C. trachorrdtis was identified in 9 cases (26.5%) by ELISA, while in 33 cases(97.1%) by PCR. When PCR was performed with urines and urinary swabs collected from 38 patients with nongonococcal urethritis, 11(29%) cases showed positive with urine and 10(26%) cases with urinary swab. These results suggested that PCR with urine showed the higher positive detection rate of C. trachomatis in the patient with nongonococcal urethritis than other methods.

In genitourinary trauma, the bladder is the second most common injury site. The majority of patients are injured by traffic accident. Injuries associated with bladder trauma are usually pelvic and rib fracture, but diaphragmatic rupture is rare. If bladder injury is suspected, diagnosis is made by a retrograde cystogram in most cases. However, if the patient complains of dyspnea, erect chest PA view or chest CT scan should be evaluated. We experienced a case of intraperitoneal bladder rupture combined with diaphragmatic rupture without other internal organ injury in a 68-year-old woman.
