[The intrauterine rupture of the fetal bladder as a complication of low urinary tract obstruction]. / Die intrauterine Blasenruptur als Komplikation infravesikaler Harnentleerungsstörungen beim Feten.

Lower urinary tract obstruction in fetuses causes megacystis, megaureter and hydronephrosis. The spontaneous rupture of the fetal bladder represents a rare complication in cases of total bladder outlet obstruction. We report about two different cases, present pre- and postnatal therapeutic regimes and discuss the possibility of spontaneous healing of a ruptured fetal bladder before delivery.
