This study investigated presumed congenital urethral strictures in 12 patients. Treatments like internal urethrotomy and transurethral dilatation showed improved maximal urinary flow in most patients.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery

Context:

  • Congenital urethral strictures are rare in adults.
  • Patients presented with varied lower urinary tract symptoms.
  • Diagnosis was delayed, averaging 18 months from symptom onset.

Purpose:

  • To describe characteristics and treatment outcomes of presumed congenital urethral strictures.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of initial treatments like internal urethrotomy and transurethral dilatation.

Summary:

  • Twelve patients with presumed congenital bulbar urethral strictures were analyzed.
  • Initial treatments included internal urethrotomy (5 patients) and transurethral dilatation (7 patients).
  • Most patients achieved maximal urinary flow greater than 20 ml/sec after treatment.

Impact:

  • Suggests that congenital urethral strictures can present in young adulthood.
  • Demonstrates the effectiveness of surgical interventions in improving urinary flow.
  • Highlights the need for timely diagnosis and appropriate management of urethral strictures.
