Abstract

We report a case of pelvic fracture urethral injury reconstructed by anastomotic urethroplasty. A 24-year-old male was referred to our hospital because of pelvic trauma accompanying ischial fracture. Retrograde urethrography showed urethral disruption and suprapubic catheter was inserted. One week later, we underwent endoscopic realignment. Three months later, we removed the Foley balloon catheter after we had checked that there was no stricture by the voiding cystourethrogram. However, 5 days after that, he came to our hospital because of urinary retention. Cystoscopy detected urinary stricture between bulbar and membranous urethra. We decided to do deferred urethroplasty. Five months after that we performed anastomotic urethroplasty. He was discharged 31 days after the operation. No stricture has been detected for 7 months postoperatively.
