On the Excision of Strictures of the Urethra
نویسنده
چکیده
of urethral strictures. It is true that most modern text-books do mention the excision of strictures in a brief and unconvincing sort of way, after they have devoted many pages and illustrations to the detailed description of the various forms of urethrotomy. Isolated papers appear from time to time dealing with this subject ; but nevertheless the radical operation for urethral stricture is not as widely known, or practised, as it well deserves

Non-transecting bulbar urethroplasty
Excision and end-to-end anastomosis (EPA) has been the preferred urethroplasty technique for short bulbar strictures and is associated with an excellent functional outcome. Driven by concerns over the potential morbidity associated with dividing the urethra, therefore compromising spongiosal blood flow, as well as spongiofibrosis being superficial in the majority of non-traumatic bulbar strictu...
متن کاملThe case for excision and primary anastomotic urethroplasty for bulbar urethral stricture
With an estimated prevalence of 296 to 627 per 100.000 men, male urethral stricture disease imposes a significant burden on the health care system (1, 2). Urethroplasty has demonstrated durable, high success rates in the management of a wide spectrum of stricture disease, far exceeding that of the more commonly performed but less successful direct vision internal urethrotomy (DVIU) (1, 3-5). Wh...

متن کاملUse of overlapping buccal mucosa graft urethroplasty for complex anterior urethral strictures
Complex anterior urethral stricture disease typically manifests as a symptomatic, severely narrowed, long stricture (or multiple strictures) in which conventional excision and/or augmentation is not feasible. Overlapping buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty (OBMGU) is an innovative hybrid technique, combining the well-established principles of dorsal and ventral graft augmentation to allow single...
متن کاملDorsal plus ventral oral mucosal graft bulbar urethroplasty.
Traditionally, anastomotic procedures with transection and urethral excision are suggested for short bulbar strictures, while longer strictures are treated by patch graft urethroplasty preferably using the buccal mucosa as gold-standard material due to its histological characteristics. However, anastomotic urethroplasties may cause sexual complications related to vascular damage of the spongios...
