"尿遁"是為了規避或免去做某事之責,所以搭配 avoid / evade / get away / leave 等諸如此類的動詞來用。
而"尿遁"字義為藉由上廁所來最為遁詞,而"以....為遁詞、托辭",在英文中有個片語可以用
on the pretext of N/V-ing
OR: on the pretext that S + V
於是將"尿遁"套用在句子中的話,可以寫成:
He tried to get away with such an embarrassing situation on the pretext of using the bathroom.
這種用法是有例可循,並非憑空自創的:
He had escaped from the school on the pretext of using the bathroom, and then left via a side entrance.

When it was Tom's turn to speak, he "disappeared into the bathroom."
這也算尿遁吧。

誠如先前諸位大大所述, 英文中確實沒有所謂的尿遁, 但若是將日常生活中的一些用語合併起來的話, 應可讓美國人瞭解的, 所以下列的句子應可適用:
escape by visiting the John
或
escape by paying a visit to the John
註: John於英文中不但是人名, 同時也是代表了厠所

或是也可說成是:
escape by natural call
註: natural call 不再需要加注解了吧!

在下提供一個比較口語化的說法供版主參考.
Thomas again escaped with his usual "need to pee" excuse.
湯瑪斯又一如往常地"尿遁"了.
實際用例

The urine escapes
這樣是直接英翻中.....
Seize the chance to run away
這個則是比較意義相同的翻法........

由於英文裡沒有"尿遁"這個用法
就直說 He try to avoid paying the bill/check by go to restroom while waiter/waitress bring the bill/check to the table. 雖然長一點 老外才聽的懂
