Anterior urethral injuries

D A Macleod. Injury. 1976 Aug.

Abstract

Seventeen patients are reviewed who presented at the Birmingham Accident Hospital over a 20-year period with injuries to the anterior urethra. Fourteen of the injuries resulted from isolated direct blows to the perineum, while 3 were associated with multiple injuries. The clinical features and management of these patients are discussed in conjunction with a review of the relevant literature. A protocol for the management of this type of injury is outlined.
