Foreign Bodies in the Urethra.—It is rare indeed that stones form in theurethra. Usually they are arrested there during the passage of the urine.The prostatic sinus, the membranous urethra just behind the anterior layerof the triangular ligament (Fig. 1378, rf), and the navicular fossa, are thecommon sites of lodgment. Sometimes they are arrested at the peno-scrotaljunction. A marked narrowing at any part of the urethra may arrest theirpassage. Complete and incomplete obstruction may be caused, dependingon the diameter of the stone or that of the canal. The degree of the obstruc-tion is indicated practically by the arrest and the freedom of the flow of theurine through the urethra.82 1204 OPERATIVP) SURGERY.
