We report a unique case of foreign body granulomatous reaction after periurethral polytetrafluoroethylene injection causing complete urinary obstruction. Urinary obstruction in the immediate postoperative period and granuloma formation following polytetrafluoroethylene injection are not unusual. To our knowledge delayed complete urinary obstruction after polytetrafluoroethylene injection has not been described previously in the urological literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
