We report an infant with antenatally detected bilateral hydroureteronephrosis and a penile cyst who was eventually diagnosed with an anterior urethral diverticulum (AUD), subcoronal hypospadias, and posterior urethral valves (PUV) after birth. To our knowledge, there are no reports where all three anomalies have been found to coexist. As per urethral catheterisation was difficult, cystoscopy-guided catheterisation was performed. On retracting the complete foreskin, a subcoronal hypospadias was identified. The AUD was resected partially, and during a cystoscopy for completion of AUD resection, a dilated anterior urethra was found collapsed, and thin PUV were identified and divided. He remains well at nine months with an improving renal cortical thickness. The vesicoureteric reflux had resolved.

Efficacy of the Optilume paclitaxel drug-coated balloon after urethroplasty: short-term results from a multicenter study.

Background: The Optilume paclitaxel drug-coated balloon (DCB) is a relatively new-to-market alternative in the management of male anterior urethral stricture disease. The pivotal trial excluded patients with a history of urethroplasty, although these strictures may be amenable to endoscopic management. Therefore, we sought to assess the efficacy of the DCB in the management of recurrent strictures following urethroplasty.

Aim: This study aimed to examine the correlations between specific urethral function parameters observed in urodynamic testing and selected urethral characteristics evaluated by pelvic floor ultrasonography. Additionally, the presence of urethral funneling during straining was evaluated in female patients referred for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 192 female patients referred for surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence with the use of retropubic tension-free vaginal tape.
Iatrogenic Proximal Urethro-Rectal Perforation During Foley Catheter Insertion.
Case Rep Surg

Iatrogenic urethral-rectal perforation represents a rare but severe complication arising from medical interventions, notably highlighted in the context of Foley catheter insertion. This case report outlines the presentation, diagnosis, management, and outcomes of a 71-year-old male patient who experienced iatrogenic rectal perforation during the routine insertion of a Foley catheter, against the backdrop of several predisposing factors, such as atrial fibrillation, valvular disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia, urethral stenosis, and colorectal cancer with liver metastasis. The inadvertent creation of a rectourethral fistula during the procedure led to an urgent multidisciplinary approach involving surgery and postoperative management, including fecal and urine diversion and antibiotic therapy.

A penile fracture is typically a urological emergency resulting from blunt trauma to the penis, particularly during sexual activity, and it is rarely associated with urethral injury. A 52-year-old male patient presented to our emergency department with complaints of penile swelling and bruising following sexual intercourse. Assessment of the patient indicated the presence of both penile fracture and anterior urethral injury, and simultaneous repairs were performed.
