Spontaneous bladder rupture is a rare condition, with diagnosis more rare in the prenatal than postnatal period. To our knowledge, there have been 7 cases of prenatally diagnosed bladder ruptures and all have been males. ⋯ After a primary Cesarean-section birth, a tear in the newborn infant bladder dome was identified and repaired in 2 layers. The cause of the bladder rupture remains unknown.
