Mid-ureteral rupture: a rare complication of urethral catheterization.

To our knowledge, there are only a few published cases of ureteral injuries secondary to urethral catheterization. We present a case of a ureteral rupture that occurred by placement of a standard 16-Fr urethral catheter. The ureteral injury was identified by computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis and managed with ureteroureteral anastamosis. Published by Elsevier Inc.
