A CASE REPORT OF URETHRAL INJURY
Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 37
Abstract
Mrs. S., a 23-year-old, married for 2 years presented to us with continuous leakage of urine for the last three months. The problem arose when she delivered a dead full term foetus at home by a dai in March 2016. She remained in labour for 2 days before delivery. After three days of delivery, she presented with continuous leaking of urine. She had to wear sterile pads most of the time for protection. Her medical history was unremarkable. This patient had complete total longitudinal disruption of all the muscular elements of the urethral sphincter. The diagnosis of longitudinal disruption of urethral sphincter was made followed by primary reconstruction with an approximation technique M. M. Koraintin et al. (1) The muscular elements were approximated taking care not to strangulate the tissues by overtightening the knots. A simple suture technique was used rather than mattress suture as in the case of anal sphincter repair.
