OBJECTIVES Urethral injury with partial or complete disruption of urethral integrity can lead to voiding problems and serious infections. We report a new management technique involving immediate endoscopic realignment with drainage via peel-away sheath for post-traumatic bulbar urethral rupture. METHODS Thirteen patients presenting with post-traumatic bulbar urethral rupture between July 2010...

INTRODUCTION Penile fracture is defined as blunt trauma resulting in a tear of tunica albuginea surrounding the corpus cavernosum and rapidly expanding hematoma during erection. Concomitant penile fracture with urethral rupture has been reported from 10% to 20% in all penile fracture cases. However, isolated urethral injury during sexual inter courseis extremely rare. In females, intercourse-re...

In the above mentioned case, the diagnosis of such complication was achieved by means of micturating cystourethrography. The authors describe a case of urinary ascites secondary to renal ca...

Urinary obstruction is one of the causes for the morbidity and mortality, if not treated in early stages in small ruminants. Goats are more susceptible for incidence of urethral caliculi as these species having urethral process where the urethral diameter is narrowed and leads to urinary obstruction. If the condition initially not identified later bladder will rupture and leads uroabdomen. The ...

A spontaneous, non-traumatic, urinary bladder rupture is a rare condition. We describe a case of a 23-year-old male with a spontaneous bladder rupture secondary to urinary retention, due to an urethral stricture. He presented to the emergency department with voiding difficulties, severe abdominal pain and renal failure. Abdominal ultrasound revealed large amounts of ascites. After an unsuccessf...

The penile fracture is a rare blunt injury that typically happens during sexual intercourse. It might be accompanied by injury to corpus spongiosum with partial or complete rupture of urethra. We present a case of a penile fracture with bilateral rupture of corpora cavernosa and complete urethral disruption that was successfully managed. The patient underwent early surgical exploration and prim...
