Rigid retrograde endoscopy under regional aneasthesia: a novel technique for the early realignment of traumatic posterior urethral disruption

ABSTRACT

Traumatic disruption of the posterior urethra usually occurs in association with pelvic fractures and may result in significant morbidity. The management of this injury remains difficult and controversial. Recently, early restoration of urethral continuity in these patients using either both antegrade and retrograde cystoscopy (with or without fluoroscopy), or flexible retrograde urethroscopy alone under general aneasthesia, has been reported with good results.
