[Urethral complications of severe fractures of the pelvis. (author's transl)].
Between 1975 and 1979, 282 fractures of the pelvis were treated in Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois' sixty-eight of these patients sustained severe fractures, with two or more rupture of the pelvic ring. Twenty-eight patients presented with hematuria (microscopic or macroscopic) and five others with urethral bleeding. Urethral bleeding is even more serious; in the present study, it was always associated with urethral rupture. These cases are discussed; mechanism, diagnosis and treatment of these injuries are described.
