Female urethral avulsion and bladder neck closure: What now? Trigonal tubularization with placement of an artificial urinary sphincter

Bladder neck closure after severe polytrauma with an absent urethra poses a huge challenge for a young woman wanting to urinate normally. Considerations are reconstruction of a neourethra and operative means to gain continence. We describe a case of trigonal tubularization to function as a neourethr...

description Bladder neck closure after severe polytrauma with an absent urethra poses a huge challenge for a young woman wanting to urinate normally. Considerations are reconstruction of a neourethra and operative means to gain continence. We describe a case of trigonal tubularization to function as a neourethra, together with the implantation of an artificial urinary sphincter. Eleven years after suffering from an open book pelvic rim fracture at 18 years, successful reconstruction of a trigonal neourethra enabled continence and residual-free spontaneous voiding at 29 years.
