Abstract
Emphysematous cystitis is primary infection of the bladder with gas production by bacteria. The infection is uncommon but commands clinical importance due to its morbidity and mortality potential. We report a 54 year-old man with emphysematous cystitis associated with prostatic and urethral involvement. He was managed with antibiotics and suprapubic catheterization.
