 Blunt pelvic trauma results in posterior urethral distraction defects PUDDs in a10 of cases; such injury commonly involves the membranous urethra at the point of departure from the bulbospongiosum, at the prostatomembranous junction, or at any point between its departure and the apex of the prostate 1. PUDDs are complex pathologically, involving displacement and misalignment of the severed urethral ends with intervening and surrounding fibrosis. Detached bony fragments and callus formation add to the pathological complexity. For a successful repair of a PUDD it is necessary to identify the specific anatomy of the distraction defect before undertaking any treatment2.
