Emphysematous cystitis is a relatively rare and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by the collection of gas in the bladder wall and lumen due to infection caused by gas-forming organisms. Imaging studies are necessary to detect emphysematous cystitis. The management consists of broad-spectrum antibiotics, strict glycemic control, and bladder drainage. Complications may arise in some cases, requiring surgical treatment. We present a case of extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing and emphysematous cystitis in a known diabetic.
气肿性膀胱炎是一种相对罕见且可能危及生命的疾病，其特征是由于产气微生物感染导致膀胱壁和腔内积聚气体。影像学检查对于检测气肿性膀胱炎是必要的。治疗包括使用广谱抗生素、严格控制血糖以及膀胱引流。在某些情况下可能会出现并发症，需要进行手术治疗。我们报告一例已知糖尿病患者发生产超广谱β-内酰胺酶和气肿性膀胱炎的病例。
