From: Wound healing responses of urinary extravasation after urethral injury
The schema of the murine urethral injury model is shown. The urethral epithelium is formed by pseudostratified columnar epithelium (shown by purple-colored epithelial cells). The urethra was separated from the corpus cavernosum, and the compression injury using mosquito forceps was suffered (right bottom rows). The isolated 0.2 ml urine was injected from the lumen of urethra using 29 gauge needle and the urethral mesenchyme was thus exposed to urine (urinary extravasation).
