BACKGROUND In male cattle, rupture of the urinary bladder is usually associated with urethral obstruction by uroliths. Less common causes include urethral compression or stricture. This case report describes the findings in a young Limousion breeding bull with rupture of the urinary bladder because of urethral compression by a haematoma after coccygeal fracture. CASE PRESENTATION The bull had...

Non-traumatic, spontaneous urinary bladder rupture is a rare complication of urethral stricture. Furthermore, its symptoms are often nonspecific, and misdiagnosis is common. The authors experienced a case of urethral stricture with spontaneous bladder rupture and bilateral hydronephrosis, mimicking obstructive uropathy attributed to cancer metastasis. A 55-year-old woman was admitted with abdom...

Penile fracture is a rare condition. It primarily involves the rupture of the corpus cavernosum during erection, which may also affect the corpus spongiosum and urethra. We describe the case of a 35-year-old man who presented with acute penile pain, penile swelling, and a hematuria after a blunt trauma during sexual intercourse. The emergency retrograde urethrogram revealed a rare condition, ex...

background penile fracture is a relatively rare urologic emergency. it is defined as traumatic rupture in tunica albuginea of corpus cavernosum. traditionally, surgeon explores the penis in full-length by complete degloving of its skin and repairs any defect in the tunica. imaging modalities such as ultrasound and mri may be of help to reveal the exact site of tunica defect preoperatively for t...

BACKGROUND Spontaneous kidney rupture could develop in the course of posterior urethral valve (PUV), the most common cause of outflow urinary tract obstruction in male infants. However, urinary extravasation is a rare complication among this group of children. CASE PRESENTATION Our case report presents diagnostic difficulties connected with spontaneous kidney rupture due to PUV in a 6 week-ol...

background: the treatment of urethral stricture in female patients is through dilatation of the urethra by tubes of increasing diameter. there are two main methods: intermittent dilatation and on demand dilatation. objectives: the main aim of this study was to compare the results of these two methods, and to determine the best one. patients and methods: in this clinical trial study, we reviewed...

Majority of posterior urethral stricture results from pelvic fracture, straddle injuries, or crush injuries. The management of traumatic posterior urethral strictures remains one of the most difficult tasks in urologic practice. In developed countries, agricultural activities have reduced over time and the number of accidents with pelvic fracture due to tractors tipping over has markedly decrea...

We report a case of a 37 year old man who presented with acute penile pain, penile swelling and the inability to pass urine after a blunt trauma during sexual intercourse.
