[Surgery of urethral stenosis, 162 cases (author's transl)].
The authors report a series of 194 operations for urethral stenosis, carried out in 162 patients between 1971 and 1977, and give the indications for various operative procedures. In the absence of chronic prostatitis and changes in the corpora spongiosa, limited stenosis should now be treated by endoscopic urethrotomy. Extensive stenosis or penoscrotal stenosis should be treated by vaginal urethroplasty, the other cases by urethroplasty in two stages. The quality of the results which may and ought to be satisfactory in 8 cases out of 10 depends on the judicious choice of the operative procedure, care in execution and the quality of the postoperative supervision.
