[Urethral disruption treated by echo guided endoscopic management: a case report].

چکیده
We report a case of 63-years-old man with a chief complaint of urinary retention and urethral meatal bleeding due to straddle injury. Urological examination revealed proximal bulbous urethral disruption with 1 cm gap, and then cystostomy was placed. Afterwards, urethral disruption was treated by echo guided endoscopic urethroplasty. Transurethral resection of scar tissue was performed twice for postoperative urethral stricture. Postoperative voiding cystourethrography revealed no urethral stricture. The patient voids well without urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction. Recently, endoscopic urethroplasty, which is easy, minimally invasive, and repeatable in comparison with open urethral reconstruction, has been frequently performed for urethral disruption as endoscopic instruments functionally develop. Echo guided image in the present case is so useful that proximal and distal end of urethral disruption can be shown in same plane, indicating that primary urethral tract can be reconstructed without injury of rectum and urethra.

Immediate endoscopic management of complete iatrogenic anterior urethral injuries: A case series with long-term results
BACKGROUND Urethral injury produces partial or complete disruption of the urethral integrity. Advances in endourology have made endoscopic management of most of these injuries feasible without greatly compromising the final result. We report our institutional experience of immediate endoscopic realignment of complete iatrogenic anterior urethral injury. METHODS From May 1997 to May 2003, seve...
