Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 9

Abstract

This study done at Father Muller medical college hospital aimed at throwing light on a less known and rather ignored subject that is urethral injury in all its perspective. We studied the various patterns, etiology, clinical presentations of urethral injury along with diagnostic and therapeutic interventions practiced here. The detailed data analysis revealed the male predominance with younger age group being the victims of urethral injury. The commonest cause being trauma. Bulbar urethral rupture was common compared to membranous part and diagnosis facilitated usually by retrograde urethrogram. Majority of them underwent early endoscopic realignment with or without supra pubic cystostomy prior to it. We stress upon the fact that early realignment of the injured urethra should be first priority.
