Résumé
To define clinical features and surgical management of urethro-cavernosal fistulas (UCF). A literature search was performed using PubMed to identify publications with the key word urethro-cavernosal fistula. We herein describe surgical techniques and long-term outcomes for UCF repair. UCFs is a rare urological condition with only 9 cases reported to date. UCFs can be diagnosed with careful history, physical examination, and retrograde urethrography. Surgical management includes basic tenets of fistula repair, including adequate mobilization, tension-free but watertight approximation, multilayered closure with nonoverlapping suture lines, and maximal bladder drainage.
