[Sequelae of injuries on the lower urogenital system]

Abstract

A description of aetiology, symptomatology, and diagnosis of traumatic lesions of the bladder, urethra, and genital organs is followed by a critical discussion of therapy. Contributions to these topics coming from round-table discussions, held at several international urological meetings during the past few years, are considered. Important points concerning traumatic lesions of the bladder, and the male, female, and infant urethra are stressed. Consideration is given to diagnostic methods and to surgical methods relative to localisation, degree, and age of urethral lesion. Complications resulting with and without therapy are laid down.
