Surgical excision of urethral prolapse

Area of Science:

• Urology
• Surgical Techniques

Background:

• Urethral prolapse involves the eversion of urethral mucosa through the distal urethra.
• Management strategies include conservative and surgical approaches.

Observation:

• A case of severe urethral prolapse minimally responsive to topical estrogen is presented.
• Surgical excision of redundant urethral mucosa was performed.

Findings:

• The video demonstrates surgical techniques for excising urethral prolapse.
• Individualized management based on symptom severity and anatomical compromise is crucial.

Implications:

• Surgical management is indicated for cases with vascular compromise or failed medical therapy.
• This approach offers an effective solution for severe urethral prolapse.
