Introduction: Urinary bladder rupture is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis and repair is the treatment of choice. Diagnosis is usually done by conventional X-ray or computed tomography (CT) cystography. We present a post-traumatic intraperitoneal bladder dome rupture which was diagnosed exclusively using ultrasound and then confirmed on fluoroscopic cystography and finally at laparotomy. Ultrasound imaging therefore, in an appropriate emergency clinical setting can diagnose urinary bladder rupture.
