    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Traumatic disruption of the deep urethra often requires complex surgical intervention.
    • Chronic osteitis pubis and pelvic bone tumors present unique surgical challenges.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of pubectomy in managing traumatic urethral injuries.
    • To assess the efficacy of pubectomy in treating chronic osteitis pubis and pelvic chondrosarcoma.

    Main Methods:

    • Pubectomy was performed for traumatic urethral disruption following cystostomy.
    • The technique was applied to selected cases of chronic osteitis pubis.
    • Radical pubectomy was utilized in two patients with pubic chondrosarcoma.

    Main Results:

    • The procedure facilitated prostate apex and distal urethral mobilization for end-to-end anastomosis.
