  • Title: Open surgery for urethral foreign body.
    Author: Maqueda Vocos M, Bonanno NA, Blas L, Villasante N.
    Journal: Medicina (B Aires); 2022; 82(5):791-793. PubMed ID: 36220042.
    Abstract:
    The introduction of foreign bodies in the urethra are uncommon. Given its rarity, the approach to this condition is not standardized but it is highlighted that minimally invasive procedures should be prioritized depending on its feasibility. In the present study, we report a case of a 60-year-old male patient with bipolar disorder and a foreign body impacted in the bulbar urethra with open surgical resolution after a failed endoscopic treatment. We perform an analysis into the diagnostic and therapeutic methods used, with postoperative results. La introducción de cuerpos extraños uretrales es poco frecuente, razón por la cual, la mayoría de las publicaciones disponibles en la literatura son reportes de casos aislados o pequeñas series con gran heterogeneidad. Existen distintas aproximaciones frente a esta afección, desde métodos menos invasivos hasta cirugías abiertas más complejas. Presentamos un caso de cuerpo extraño impactado en uretra bulbar con el objetivo de analizar métodos diagnósticos empleados y aproximaciones terapéuticas concluyendo en la resolución quirúrgica convencional. Se evaluaron resultados postoperatorios.
