    Hernia complications can occur after posterior urethral stricture repair. Transpubic bulboprostatic urethral anastomosis and omentoplasty led to perineal and pubic hernias in two patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Complications
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Posterior urethral strictures often require complex surgical repair.
    • Transpubic bulboprostatic urethral anastomosis combined with omentoplasty is a reconstructive technique.
    • Understanding potential complications is crucial for patient management.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of herniation were observed following surgical repair.
    • The surgical procedure involved transpubic bulboprostatic urethral anastomosis and omentoplasty.
    • Hernias presented as either perineal or pubic in location.

    Findings:

    • Surgical repair of posterior urethral strictures can lead to herniation.
    • The specific technique of transpubic bulboprostatic urethral anastomosis and omentoplasty was associated with these hernias.

  • Hernias occurred in distinct anatomical locations: perineal and pubic.

    • Implications:

    • This highlights a potential, albeit rare, complication of this specific surgical approach.
    • Surgeons should be aware of the risk of hernia formation post-urethroplasty.
    • Further investigation may be warranted to elucidate the exact mechanism and preventative strategies for these hernias.
