Objective:
To evaluate endourethral surgery for urethratresia under the X-ray guide.
Methods:
We performed transurethral urethroplasty for 11 patients with urethratresia using the PlasmaKinetic electrodes under the guidance of C arm xanthippe.
Results:
In the 11 cases, operations were all successful, 9 achieved smooth urination and 2 needed regular urethral dilation.
Conclusion:
X-ray guided internal urethroplasty with PlasmaKinetic electrodes is a simple and efficient treatment for urethratresia.
