ABSTRACT
Urethral destruction in women is a rare pathology which is result of traumatic damage of the urethra during pelvic fractures, sexual trauma, iatrogenic effects (operative vaginal delivery, prolonged catheterization of the bladder, complicated surgical interventions on the urethra, etc.). The main symptom of urethral destruction is involuntary urinary incontinence. The relevance and complexity of this problem are determined by the fact that the choice of surgical treatment for urethral destruction is still unsolved. This requires such kind of intervention, which will be aimed not only at restoring of the anatomy, but also at correcting urinary incontinence - often in several stages. This article describes two clinical cases of urethral destruction in women with iatrogenic damage to the urethra.
