Abstract

Good results have been obtained following the treatment of incomplete urethral rupture while the results of complete urethral rupture treated in this hospital by the conventional method have been very poor. This poor result is comparable to those from other centers using similar methods. A review of various treatment methods was undertaken and reasons are given for advocating the method of initial suprapubic cystostomy, followed by delay urethroplasty.
