Surgical management of spontaneous post-partum bladder rupture in an Amazonian emergency hospital.

Spontaneous rupture of the urinary bladder (SRUB) is a rare urological emergency and even more uncommon in the puerperium. Post-partum bladder rupture might be associated with fetal pressure on the not emptied bladder wall during labor. We report a case of SRUB three days after normal vaginal delivery with high values of creatinine and absence of hematuria, surgically managed in an emergency hospital in the Amazon.
