Urethral trauma
-
Urethral injuries usually occur in men. Most major urethral injuries are due to blunt trauma. Penetrating urethral trauma is less common, occurring mainly as a result of gunshot wounds, or, alternatively, due to inserting objects into the urethra during sexual activity or because of psychiatric illness.
Urethral injuries are classified as contusions, partial disruptions, or complete disruptions, and they may involve the posterior or anterior urethral segments. Posterior urethral injuries occur almost exclusively with pelvic fractures. Anterior urethral injuries are often consequences of a perineal straddle injury due to a fall, perineal blow, or motor vehicle crash. Iatrogenic injuries occur during transurethral instrumentation (eg, catheter placement or removal, cystoscopy).
Complications include infection, incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and stricture or stenosis (quot;stenosisquot; is narrowing of the posterior urethra whereas quot;stricturequot; refers exclusively to the anterior urethra).
