The base of the treatment of urethral stenosis remains in the stenosis itself (localization, etiology and length) and also in patient's characteristics (age, past medical history). Among the techniques of urethroplasty we have techniques in one step, as the technique of excision and anastomosis, and the use of free grafts or vascularized flaps. The techniques in two steps like Johannson's or perineostomy are very useful in certain cases of complex stenosis. We should keep an eye on the development of new techniques and the use of new materials that will help, once consolidated, to improve results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
