Abstract: This case report demonstrates an anterior urethral disruption in a female patient with a pelvic fracture. Compared to male patients the incidence of this injury in females is significantly less occurring between 0-5%. Unlike male patients retrograde uretherogram may be difficult and urethroscopy is frequently required. Whereas male patients are typically treated with urinary catheter female patients often require surgical repair of this injury.
