Presentation
Patient with suprapubic cystostomy for urethral assessment.
Patient Data
Retrograde injection of the urethra revealed opacification of the penile urethra with no flow at the bulbar and posterior urethra. This was confirmed by increased pressure of injection.
Cystography was made through the suprapubic catheter, which shows bladder wall irregularity. The patient failed to void, then bladder was emptied again through suprapubic catheter.
Case Discussion
