Abstract
Purple Urine Bag Syndrome (PUBS) is an infrequent manifestation associated with urinary tract infection in patients with long term catheterisation where the catheter bag and tubing turn a striking purple colour. It is a benign phenomenon but alarming for the patients, families and healthcare providers. We present a case report of this rare phenomenon occurring in an asymptomatic 83 year old lady, who was brought in for consultation at the Geriatric clinic.
