    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Urology
    • Surgical Reconstruction
    • Urethral Stricture Disease

    Background:

    • Posterior urethral strictures are a significant challenge in pediatric urology.
    • Traumatic etiologies, including iatrogenic causes, necessitate diverse surgical interventions.
    • Accurate diagnosis and tailored surgical approaches are crucial for successful outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a series of pediatric posterior urethral strictures.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of various surgical techniques for treating these strictures.
    • To assess the role of omentum in complex reconstructions.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 33 pediatric posterior urethral stricture cases.
    • Surgical interventions included transpubic urethroplasty, posterior scroto-urethral inlay, perineal techniques (push-in, end-to-end anastomosis, pedicled tube urethroplasty, free skin graft), and endoscopic urethrotomy.
    • Omental flaps were utilized in 19 cases, particularly with the transpubic approach.

    Main Results:

    • An overall success rate of 87.8% was achieved across all treated cases.
    • Transpubic urethroplasty demonstrated a high success rate (18/20 cases).
    • Perineal urethroplasties and other techniques also yielded favorable outcomes (8/9 and 3/4, respectively).

    Conclusions:

    • Both transpubic and perineal approaches are effective for pediatric posterior urethral strictures.
    • The use of omentum is a valuable adjunct in complex transpubic urethroplasties.
    • A high success rate underscores the effectiveness of surgical management for these challenging conditions.
