Endoscopic repair of post-traumatic fistulae of posterior urethra using hyaluronic acid dextranomer.

ABSTRACT

Many surgical approaches to posterior urethral diseases are reported in published data. The authors report a case of a patient with prostatic urethral post-traumatic fistulae, probably developed from an abscess that developed after a surgical intervention to correct a pubic symphysis fracture. The fistulae were repaired with an unusual mininvasive endourologic procedure, using the hyaluronic acid dextranomer, which is commonly used in vesicoureteral reflux treatment.
