A failed end-to-end anastomosis after membranous urethral distraction injury post-trauma is a surgical challenge. We present a case of a young man after complex pelvic injury. Revision urethroplasty was done utilizing nerve and vessel sparing techniques. Intrasphincteric dissection enabled bulbous urethral pull-through with intrapelvic anastomosis with good success. Low dose tadalafil was given to optimize penile rehabilitation.

Integrating a Virtual Reality Mask in Functional Urological Surgeries Under Local Anesthesia: A Prospective Cohort Study on Utility and Satisfaction.
Urology
November 2024
Department of Urology, Tenon Academic Hospital, Assistance-Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris, Sorbonne University, Paris, France.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of a virtual reality (VR) mask as a distraction method during minimally invasive urological procedures using local anesthesia.
- It included 39 patients undergoing specific urological interventions, measuring anxiety and pain levels preoperatively and intraoperatively, along with vital signs and patient satisfaction surveys.
- Results indicated that the majority of patients found the VR mask satisfactory and it may help in reducing pain and anxiety during these procedures.
Strategies to Improve Bladder Control: A Preliminary Case Study.

Article Synopsis
- * Two innovative techniques are presented to help manage LUTS: one involves mental imagery to visualize bladder function, and the other uses specific odors as cues for urination.
- * A case study showed significant improvement with the mental imagery method, reducing the time to void residual urine dramatically compared to the patient's baseline, while the odor cues did not yield notable results.
[Pulsed thulium laser combined with pulsed thulium laser injection for the treatment of failed urethral anastomosis].

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of pulsed thulium laser (PTL) combined with triamcinolone injections for treating failed posterior urethral anastomosis (FPUA) in 35 male patients.
- - Patients underwent either PTL or plasma treatment along with the steroid injection and were monitored for changes in urinary flow and complications over an average follow-up of 21 months.
- - Results showed that PTL treatment improved urinary flow significantly compared to plasma treatment, suggesting it may provide better short-term results for maintaining urethral patency after FPUA.
Retrospective analysis of urethral anastomosis with ancillary maneuvers and intraoperative biaxial defect measurements to achieve a tension free guidance system for redo PFUDD treatment.

Objectives: Redo surgery for pelvic fracture urethral distraction defects (PFUDDs) is still a challenge. the long urethral defect makes it difficult while the high tension increase the recurrence rate. Although certain ancillary maneuvers can relieve tension, there is no consensus or guidelines for the prediction/planning of the selection.
