Abstract
- Objective: The sonographic anatomy of the urethrovesical anastomosis in patients submitted to radical prostatectomy is described herein.<br />Method: Video sonographic voiding cystourethrography was performed using a 7.5 MHz linear-array transrectal probe.<br />Results: The longitudinal ultrasound scans of the urethrovesical anastomosis during the different phases of micturition are shown.<br />Conclusion: Video sonographic voiding cystourethrography is useful in the evaluation of the urethrovesical anastomosis after radical prostatectomy, at rest and during micturition. It also permits detecting any postoperative complication as hematoma, abscess or early recurrence.
