Radical cystectomy with neobladder connection to the urethra has been a treatment of choice for the motivated patient with localized invasive bladder cancer for the decade. Reports of spontaneous rupture of the neobladder were few. We herein report a case of spontaneous rupture of a neobladder without definite reason found out. Thus, the possibility of spontaneous rupture of the neobladder should always be kept in mind, once sudden onset of abdominal pain is noted by a patient who accepted radical cystectomy with a neobladder procedure.
