    This study introduces marsupialization, a new surgical technique for suburethral diverticulum, offering symptom relief with no complications. This approach is a safer alternative to the standard diverticulectomy.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Suburethral diverticulum diagnosis is often delayed.
    • Current standard therapy, diverticulectomy, has a notable complication rate.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report the outcomes of marsupialization for suburethral diverticulum.
    • To introduce a novel surgical technique for this condition.
    • To present a diagnostic evaluation program.

    Main Methods:

    • Marsupialization surgical technique detailed.
    • Therapy applied to 8 patients with missed diagnoses.
    • Literature survey conducted.

    Main Results:

    • Marsupialization demonstrated short operation times and minimal blood loss.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • All 8 patients experienced symptom relief post-surgery.
  • Zero complications observed with marsupialization versus 17% for diverticulectomy.

    • Conclusions:

    • Marsupialization is a safe and effective treatment for suburethral diverticulum.
    • This technique offers significant advantages over diverticulectomy.
    • Improved diagnostic strategies are needed for timely identification.
