An H-section steel bar that had been set against the wall fell and hit the abdomen and then both legs of a 33-year-old Chinese man. As his vital signs were stable and his chief complaint was leg pain, he was transferred to a local medical facility. After the confirmation of gross hematuria by an indwelling a bladder catheter there, he was transported to our hospital. On arrival, his vital signs were stable. His main complaint was foot pain. He had a scabbing injury at the scrotum and bilateral foot joint deformity. Whole-body computed tomography (CT) from head to toe revealed trabecular formation in the bladder and slight fluid collection in the rectovesical pouch, as well as bilateral fracture-dislocations at the ankles. The urinary tract injury and the fluid collection in the rectovesical pouch were managed conservatively, and the lower limbs were treated tentatively. Follow-up CT on day 3 revealed multiple free air pockets in the intra-abdominal cavity, which was considered to indicate perforation of the duodenal ulcer and treated conservatively. However, he showed abdominal pain on day 7, and repeated CT revealed increased fluid in the intra-abdominal cavity. Urgent laparoscopy showed intact bowels and perforation of the bladder that was closed by suturing. He ultimately obtained a survival outcome. This is the first case of transient trabecular formation in the bladder and delayed free air due to traumatic intraperitoneal bladder rupture. This unique case adds another radiological finding to the list of documented etiologies of traumatic bladder perforation.
