| description | Urethral stricture is narrowing of the urethra due to inflammation that
results in scarring. Prostatectomies for benign and malign prostatic
diseases are common surgical procedures among men mainly after
their fifties. Urethral stricture or bladder neck contraction following
transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is seen in up to 19% of
men in different series. Urethral stricture after laser prostatectomy is less
frequently reported than TURP, which is about 3.6%. Open prostatectomy
for benign prostatic hyperplasia is the oldest technique, nonetheless, it
is a reasonable alternative for patients with larger prostates. Urethral
stricture is reported in 1.9-4.8% of patients after open prostatectomy.
Radical prostatectomy (RP) is the most common surgical procedure done
worldwide for the treatment of localized prostate cancer. Contracture
of the bladder neck at the level of the anastomosis is a well-recognized
complication after RP occurring in 0.4-32% of patients. Strictures are
mainly treated with endoscopic procedures. Rarely, urethroplasty with
buccal mucosa grafts is needed for more complicated cases. |
