Some degree of pain is a part of every individual's life. Many people, however, live in chronic debilitating pain.

[Intraperitoneal bladder rupture].

After explanation of the causes, symptomatology, diagnostics, and therapy of the intraperitoneal vesical rupture two cases are demonstrated which only four or five days, respectively, after the accident were diagnosed and underwent treatment. In one case it was the encapsulation of the urine extravasate by a fibrinous pseudomembrane in the abdominal cavity, in the other case a prolapsed into the vesical lumen intestinal loop which favoured a retarded course of the disease. Despite the demonstration of these two cases the demand of a quick diagnostics and operative therapy is preserved in all urgency, also in only clinical suspicion of an intraperitoneal vesical rupture.
