Single-stage urethral stricture repair requires wide urethral opening beyond diseased tissue to prevent recurrence. Reconstruction of the bulbocavernosus muscle is crucial for ejaculatory function.

Area of Science:

Urology
Surgical Innovation

Background:

Urethral stricture disease presents a significant challenge in reconstructive urology.
Recurrence after surgical intervention remains a common complication.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the outcomes of a single-stage surgical approach for urethral stricture.
To identify critical surgical techniques to minimize recurrence and optimize functional results.

Main Methods:

A cohort of seventeen patients underwent a single-stage operation for urethral stricture.
Surgical technique involved opening the urethra beyond the stricture and pathological tissue.
Reconstruction of the bulbocavernosus muscle was attempted in all cases.

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

Two patients experienced recurrence of urethral stricture.

In three patients, bulbocavernosus muscle reconstruction was unsuccessful, leading to urethral pouching and altered ejaculation.

Excision of the scrotal skin flap apex appeared to prevent marginal skin necrosis.

Conclusions:

A single-stage repair for urethral stricture can be effective, but requires careful surgical technique.
Ensuring adequate urethral opening and successful bulbocavernosus muscle reconstruction are vital for preventing recurrence and preserving ejaculatory function.
Specific modifications to scrotal flap design may reduce complications like skin necrosis.
