Relapsing ascites and uremia due to urinary bladder leakage

A 62-year-old female was admitted for a new episode of ascites, complicated by uremia. She had been treated 6 years earlier for bladder cancer with partial cystectomy and postoperative radiotherapy. At the work-up for both previous episodes of ascites, 6 and 24 months earlier, no definite diagnosis...

description A 62-year-old female was admitted for a new episode of ascites, complicated by uremia. She had been treated 6 years earlier for bladder cancer with partial cystectomy and postoperative radiotherapy. At the work-up for both previous episodes of ascites, 6 and 24 months earlier, no definite diagnosis was made, and each time the ascites disappeared spontaneously. Also, at the third episode, the uremia resolved. Finally, explorative laparoscopy demonstrated urinary leakage from the superior portion of the bladder. This feature of vanishing and relapsing ascites is explained by intermittent covering by overlying abdominal structures and subsequent spontaneous healing. The pseudo-renal failure is caused by reabsorption of urine through the peritoneum. Only nine cases of recurring ascites and eight cases of bladder perforation after radiotherapy have been described in the literature.
