Lee: Complete Traumatic Rupture of Female Urethra - Report of Four Cases -

Abstract

Four cases of complete traumatic rupture of female urethra were reviewed. Herein the incidence, etiology and treatment modalities of complete rupture of female urethra are discussed to propose guidelines for the proper management of these unusual injuries. I recommend the following: Through the retropubic approach in children, a primary realignment with either surgery or an interlocking Foley catheterization should be performed as in the delayed retropubic urethroplasty when primary realignment was not accomplished. Transvaginal repair is considered choice approach for the urethro-vaginal laceration due to other than pelvic fracture in adults.
