Reconstruction of the urethra with a Surgisis onlay patch in urethral reconstructive surgery: two case reports
Introduction:
We present two case reports of patients with recurrent stricture of the urethra. We used Surgisis((R)) for reconstruction.
Case Presentation:
In these two case reports, we show the positive results of reconstructive surgery with Surgisis((R)) as an alternative surgical approach to common onlay patch surgery of the urethra performed on two Caucasian patients: a 48-year-old man and a 55-year-old man.
Conclusion:
Compared to buccal mucosa flap or foreskin graft surgeries for urethral reconstruction, reconstructive surgery with Surgisis((R)) is considered a relevant therapeutic alternative because of the shorter operation time and the preventable surgery of the buccal cavity or foreskin.
