5. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP): Urethral stricture occurs in
3.1–10% of patients, possibly as the consequence of abrasions by oversized resectoscopes, electrical transmission through the sheath with urethral burn, or post-operative urinary tract infections.
6. Transurethral microwave therapy (TUMT)
7. Radical prostatectomy: anastomotic urethra-vesical stricture (occurs in 7–17%)
8. Insertion of the needle during TOT or TVT.
The WHO consensus summarizes the causes of urethral injury as [1]:
1. Posterior urethra injuries:
– Penetrating injuries: Gunshot wounds, stab wounds – PFUIs: road trafc accidents, falls from heights, industrial accidents – Iatrogenic injuries: endoscopic surgery (TURP), and radical prostatectomy
2. Anterior urethral injuries:
– Blunt trauma: fall astride, kicks in the perineum, go-kart injuries, skateboarding – Penetrating trauma: gunshot/stab wounds – Sexual excess: penile fractures – Urethral foreign bodies – Constriction bands (seen in paraplegics, etc.) – Iatrogenic injuries: urethral catheters, penile surgery, endoscopic
instrumentation

Classification ofUrethral Injury

Many grading systems have been proposed for urethral injury, but they all suffer from the lack of high-level evidence and are merely based on the authors’ experi­ence [1]. One of the oldest is the Colapinto and McCallum classication proposed in 1977, based on retrograde urethrography. It was exclusively proposed for the posterior urethra [2] (Table29.1).
The most popular classication was proposed by Goldman etal. in 1977, which is a modication and completion of the Colapinto and McCallum classication with the addition of more anatomical descriptions [3, 4] (Table29.2; Fig.29.1).
The AAST classication published by Moore et al. in 1995 emphasized the importance of the anatomopathological aspect of the injury being either a simple contusion, a partial or a total disruption, and for total disruption, more severe inju­ries are dened by a greater than 2-cm urethral gap [5].
Table 29.1 Colapinto and McCallum classication and description of posterior urethral injury
Type I The prostate or the urogenital diaphragm is dislocated, causing elongation and
tension of the bulbomembranous urethra. There may be urethral contusion or laceration (not full thickness)
Type II The membranous urethra is ruptured above the urogenital diaphragm, with or
without prostatic injury. The bulbous urethra is intact. The rupture may be partial or complete
Type III The membranous urethra is disrupted above and below the urogenital diaphragm.
The rupture usually is complete and may be associated with a rupture of the urogenital diaphragm and/or rupture of the bulbous urethra

Goldman’s classication has been endorsed by the WHO consensus committee in 2004 because of its predictive value for incontinence [6]. However, the same committee suggested the following simplication:
(a) Anterior urethra: (1) partial disruption, (2) complete disruption (b) Posterior urethra: (3) posterior urethra stretched but intact, (4) partial disrup-
tion, (5) complete disruption, (6) complex (involves bladder neck/rectum)
In 2001 Al Rifaei etal. proposed a new functional and anatomical classication of urethral injury secondary to pelvic fracture adding an emphasis on the sphincteric mechanism [7] (Table29.3).
The multiplicity of these classications reects the lack of consensus as none is perfect and universally accepted. Moreover, they don’t clearly provide an answer to the ideal technique and timing of reconstructive surgeries for PFUIs and are there­fore considered by certain researchers to have only little impact on the technique selection and the surgical outcome prediction [1].
The European Association of Urology (EAU) attempted to reach a consensus by summarizing the most relevant points of the above classications with the purpose to have direct implications for clinical management [8] (Table29.4).
In addition to the classication of urethral injury, there is also an EAU endo­scopic classication of urethral stricture, regardless of the etiology [9] (Table29.5).
This classication has an important bearing as prior evaluation of the stricture using a small caliber ureteroscope (4.5 and 6 Fr) has shown signicant benets in the selection of the surgical approach and helps also counseling the patient about expectations and realistic results [10].

Diagnosis ofUrethral Injury: Symptoms,
https://t.me/medicina_free
Signs, andImaging Studies
30.1 Symptoms andSigns
The WHO experts’ consensus has recommended considering the following signs for the diagnosis of urethral injury: blood at the urethral meatus, difculty or inability to urinate, distended urinary bladder, buttery bruising of the perineum, high-riding prostate on digital rectal examination (DRE), pelvic fractures with displacement of the pubic rami, and pelvic hematoma on imaging [1]. Hematuria and/or urethral
bleeding remain the best indicator of urinary tract injury, and they have an incidence of 91 to 100% in urethral trauma [2].
In RTA, patients are likely to sustain multi-organ injuries and attention will natu­rally be immediately diverted to the most life-threatening injury (major vessels lac­eration, ruptured kidney, liver or spleen, hollow viscus). Stabilization of any fracture comes second, but when the pelvic arch is involved, attention should immediately be brought to the integrity of the urinary bladder and the urethra. The history of urination since the time of the accident should be elicited. The bladder should be palpated for fullness and the external organs and the perineal region should be examined for any painful swelling and skin discoloration (urinary extravasation, hematoma). A digital rectal examination (DRE) should be performed as well as a vaginal examination in females looking for associated rectal or vaginal injury.
When the patient conrms being able to void, either clear urine or blood­stained, he/she should be catheterized. However, if he/she is not able to void and there is fresh blood coming out through the external meatus, a severe ure­thral injury should be suspected regardless of the importance of the bleeding, and therefore catheterization must be avoided. Blood at the external meatus is a very reliable sign of severe urethral injury despite there being a possibility of
fallacious overdiagnosis in presence of a simple mucosal contusion.
A frequent pitfall is when the examiner fails to palpate the prostate on DRE and thinks it has been displaced upward. There might just be a boggy hematoma that prevents this examination combined with the poor cooperativeness of the patient

due to pain. However, the palpation of a free-oating prostate is almost pathog- nomonic of complete urethral rupture but remains a challenging nding taking into account the tenderness and the pelvic hematoma. Nonetheless, it is noteworthy to keep in mind that palpation of a high-riding prostate is always a reliable indicator of an injured urethra, and the posterior urethra might be signicantly stretched with­out disruption, allowing the prostate to be pushed cranially [2, 3].
The presence of any of the traditional signs of urethral injury, namely blood at the urethral meatus, perineal hematoma, and high-riding prostate, has been shown to have a sensitivity of 66.7% in the prediction of urethral injury. The presence of pubic symphysis disruption had a prediction sensitivity as higher as 92.5%, and when considering the presence of a pubic symphysis disruption or any of the above clinical signs, the sensitivity rises to 100% [3] (Table30.1).
In the pediatric population, there might be a buttery hematoma (bruising) at the supercial perineum associated with injuries to the urethra distal to the urogenital diaphragm. Scrotal or labial swelling in boys and girls, respectively, are also possi­ble following the collection of extravasated uids after the rupture of Scarpa’s fascia and Dartos fascia in severe pelvic fractures [4].
Unlike the posterior urethral disruptions which are often associated with other organs’ trauma of pelvic fractures, blunt anterior urethral trauma is generally iso­lated or just associated with cavernosal injury. Moreover, this injury might be so mild that the patients neglect it, as they have no immediate symptoms; and the majority of them will seek medical help only when a stricture develops and causes voiding difculty, after several months or years [5, 6].
30.2 Imaging Investigations
Computed Tomography (CT) is routinely used as a rst initial imaging modality in polytrauma patients, but the best radiological means to diagnose a urethral injury is retrograde urethrography (RUG) either in an acute or chronic setting. This will demonstrate a normal urethra, extravasation with some contrast entering the bladder (partial rupture), extravasation of all the contrast with the proximal tract not visualized (complete rupture), or a narrow segment (stricture) with or without a complete obstruction of the urethral lumen.

If the management consists of an initial suprapubic catheter insertion and delayed nal treatment, a combined RUG and antegrade cystourethrography should be per­formed to dene the length of the urethral gap before undertaking the denitive reconstructive surgery. A exible ureteroscope can also be introduced through the SPC site to examine the bladder neck and assess its competence for medico-legal purposes as re-establishment of a patent urethral channel might unmask occult incontinence caused by sphincter damage at the time of the trauma [7].
1. Urethrographic approaches: Urethrography can be performed through an
ascending (retrograde technique), a descending (antegrade technique), or a com­bination of the two.
The standard technique includes the following steps [8, 9]:
(a) Retrograde or ascending urethrography (Figs.30.1a, b and 30.2a–e).
– Disinfection of the external meatus with the patient in a supine position. – Insertion of a 6–8 Fr Foley catheter, or a hysterosalpingographic catheter
in the external meatus and ination of its balloon with 1–2mL of saline
