Purple urine bag syndrome

Purple urine bag syndrome (PUBS) is a rare finding that can be very alarming to patients and physicians. PUBS has a simple visual diagnosis with clinical symptoms that can aid in a quick and appropriate treatment plan. However, a lack of physician awareness could be harmful to the patient and cause unnecessary treatment and increased morbidity and financial burden to the patient. We present a case with this surprising finding and discuss the pathophysiology and management options for this rare syndrome.
