title: An outlet obstruction caused by V-shaped bar at the bladder neck in a woman.
abstract: A case of outlet obstruction caused by a V-shaped bar at the bladder neck in a woman was treated successfully by transurethral resection of the bar. The poor urinary flow in our patient was believed to be due to impedance during voiding caused by retraction of the bladder neck in the anteroposterior direction by the bar. Our case is different from previously reported cases.
