Abstract

Emphysematous cystitis is a relatively rare clinical entity caused by gas-fermenting bacteria or fungus. Presentation is often nonspecific and imaging is the best diagnostic modality. We report a case of a 45-year-old male who presented with fever, dysuria, and pneumaturia, and was found to have emphysematous cystitis.
