  • Title: Sutureless repair of ruptured urethra.
    Author: Guba T, Boer PW, Bruinen CL.
    Journal: Acta Chir Acad Sci Hung; 1978; 19(1):103-9. PubMed ID: 706952.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of complete traumatic rupture of the posterior urethra are described. The ends of the urethra were united without suture by pulling them together with a transurethral balloon catheter. The results were excellent; the patients healed without sticture and remained continent. These observations suggest the applicability of the method to similar injuries.
