Emphysematous cystitis unassociated with diabetes mellitus was diagnosed in two dogs. One dog had chronic recurring urinary tract infection with aerobic and anaerboic bacteria, and the other had urinary tract infection associated with renal glucosuria. In both dogs, the cystitis was resolved with appropriate antibacterial therapy.

A case is reported of subcutaneous emphysema of the neck in association with emphysematous cystitis and uncontrolled diabetes. Problems in its management are discussed. Anatomic pathway for the spread of the gas from the bladder to the subcutaneous tissues of the neck and the back is speculated.

Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent disorder, well controlled in many persons with prolongation of life. Several radiologic manifestations are sufficiently specific to suggest a diagnosis in the unidentified patient, but even more important is an awareness of the sometimes life-threatening complications of diabetes which can be diagnosed from uroradiologic studies. We review the following urinary tract manifestations and complications of diabetes: pyelonephritis, perinephric abscess, renal papillary necrosis, emphysematous pyelonephritis, emphysematous cystitis, fungus infections, calcification of the vas deferens, seminal vesicle, and intrarenal branches of the renal artery, neuropathic bladder, and renal failure.

A 67-year-old woman who had underlying rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes mellitus had an 8-year history of recurrent hemorrhagic cystitis. During her most recent episode of cystitis, a specimen of urine yielded herpes simplex virus type 2 in culture. A biopsy of the bladder mucosa revealed intranuclear inclusions in multinucleated and mononuclear giant cells that were positive for herpes simplex virus type 2 by immunoperoxidase staining. She had no evidence of infection with herpes simplex virus outside her bladder.

We experienced 46 cases of radiation cystitis between 1973 and 1990, 10 of which showed intractable bleeding and 17 recurrent bleeding. We clinically analyzed these cases to determine the factors responsible for intractable and recurrent bleeding. Intractable bleeding was suggested to related to the aggravation of the local condition of the urinary tract and recurrent bleeding with an increase of complications, especially diabetes mellitus and hypertension. In conclusion, long-term follow up of local conditions and complications is important in the prevention of intractable and recurrent bleeding of radiation cystitis.

Diabetes mellitus associated with urinary tract infections and ureteral obstruction can be predisposing factors leading to emphysematous pyelonephritis. Fever, flank pains, and a palpable renal mass, associated with dehydration and hyperglycemia, were the most frequent presenting symptoms associated with emphysematous pyelonephritis. Computerized tomography (CT) scan is the best method to identify a renal or perirenal abscess and its ramifications. Intravenous antibiotic therapy is determined by blood and urine cultures. Mortality was zero in patients treated by nephrectomy. One patient who had incision and drainage of a renal abscess died of sepsis, and 1 patient died of sepsis following incision and drainage of a prostatic abscess. Patients with cystitis emphysematosa require antibiotic therapy and relief of bladder outlet obstruction. Prostatic abscess is best treated by perineal incision and drainage. Periurethral scrotal abscesses should be incised, drained, and the overlying necrotic skin debrided. Early diagnosis and aggressive medical and surgical management of gas-forming infections of the genitourinary tract are vital.

Emphysematous cystitis is an uncommon condition in which pockets of gas are formed in and around the bladder wall by gas-forming organisms. Persons with diabetes, neurogenic bladder and chronic urinary infection are predisposed to the disease. Severity of illness ranges from an asymptomatic condition to life-threatening cystitis. We present 2 cases of emphysematous cystitis. One case was an incidental finding on evaluation of abdominal discomfort with resolution upon removal of predisposing factors. The other patient presented with an acute abdomen that progressed to severe necrotizing cystitis ultimately requiring cystectomy. The initial involvement of the urologist as a consultant is emphasized. A complete review of the literature describes the incidence, various presentations, associated diseases and organisms, pathogenesis, and available methods for diagnosis and treatment reported for this disease. Successful management depends on early diagnosis with correction of underlying causes, administration of appropriate antibiotics, establishment of adequate bladder drainage and surgical excision of involved tissue when required. Early detection and prompt treatment are encouraged.

Candida albicans infections are opportunistic and range from asymptomatic infections to life-threatening involvement, with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. Urinary tract involvement is usually secondary to systemic infection, although the kidney or the bladder may be primarily infected without other organs being involved. Renal fungus infections, most commonly due to Candida, are usually seen in patients with altered host resistance due to diabetes, malignancy, other chronic illnesses, or prolonged antibiotic, corticosteroid or immunosuppressive therapy. Herein we report on an immunosuppressed 12 years-old girl with Candida albicans cystitis diagnosed with US. Sonography demonstrated a discrete dense fluid-fluid interface within the bladder, mobile with changes in position. US was used to monitor the progress of therapy. Treatment is usually conservative, related to removing the precipitating factors (catheters, antibiotics, steroids). Indeed, in our case, the immunosuppressed patient needed aggressive therapy: i.v. fluconazole. Sonography 15 days after treatment showed a normal bladder, without significant sequelae or the formation of vesical concretions.

We present a case of colovesical fistula secondary to vesical gangrene. Precipitating factors were diabetes and vesical distension caused by the obstruction of an indwelling catheter. This complication is an exceptional outcome in gangrenous cystitis and it requires emergency surgical treatment.

The analysis of urinary proteins and their identification are discussed, particularly in regard to the technique of sodium dodecyl sulphate electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gradient gels. Urine collection, storage and preparation are evaluated, especially in regard to problems connected with concentration and dialysis of such samples. The instrumental approach to sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis represented by the Phast System appears to be particularly valuable in routine clinical analysis of urine specimens, since no sample pretreatment is required. The following types of proteinurias are evaluated: (a) orthostatic proteinurias; (b) post-renal proteinurias; (c) Bence-Jones proteinuria; (d) lower and upper urinary tract infection (cystitis and pyelonephritis) and (e) diabetes mellitus proteinurias.
