We report 3 cases of complete traumatic disruption of the membranous urethra treated by transurethral section of the scar tissue with transvesical endoscopic guidance and digital rectal control. Postoperatively, the patients required an average of 3 subsequent urethrotomies. They remain well, continent and free of voiding symptoms for 28, 11 and 14 months after re-establishment of urethral continuity. We suggest that this treatment be considered as an alternative to conventional surgical repair, particularly in elderly and other high risk patients.
