摘要：
Emphysematous cystitis is a rare and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by gas formation within the bladder due to bacterial infection. This article presents a case study of emphysematous cystitis in a 74-yearold male patient with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and recurrent urinary tract infections. The patient had lower abdominal pain, signs of infection, and urinary symptoms. Imaging revealed bladder wall thickening and gas bubbles. Prompt diagnosis and broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy were initiated, with intensive care monitoring. After a 14-day treatment, significant improvement occurred, leading to the patient's discharge after 20 days. This case emphasizes early recognition and aggressive management for optimal outcomes.
