Resumo

Sixty per cent of 50 cases of bladder hernia collected over a two-year period were in patients under 50 years of age; 62 per cent were in women. Only patients with large hernias extending into the scrotum made a specific complaint of two-stage urination. Routine use of erect and prone films led to increased ability to diagnose the entity and differentiate it from diverticula or cystocele. In one patient the type of hernia (direct) was diagnosed by pelvic angiography. Cystoscopy was of no diagnostic aid. An attempt was made to establish criteria for radiographic classification of types of bladder hernia.
