The aim of this study is to present a novel use of Dextranomer/hyaluronic acid copolymer (Deflux) for the treatment of a complicated iatrogenic chronic urethral injury. A 12-year-old boy with a neuropathic bladder presented a groove in the urethral mucosa due to chronic clean intermittent catheterizations (CICs) and suffered a posterior urethral injury during a failed catheterization for a routine examination. The defect on the urethral wall was repaired using Deflux, a technique that is not described in the literature. After the intervention the patient is continuing CICs without further complications.
本研究的目的是介绍葡聚糖/透明质酸共聚物（Deflux）在治疗复杂性医源性慢性尿道损伤中的一种新用途。一名患有神经源性膀胱的12岁男孩因长期清洁间歇性导尿（CIC）导致尿道黏膜出现沟槽，并在一次常规检查导尿失败时发生后尿道损伤。使用Deflux修复尿道壁缺损，这是一种文献中未描述的技术。干预后，患者继续进行CIC，未出现进一步并发症。
