title: [Congenital distal stenosis of the female urethra and reflux (author's transl)].
abstract: The diagnosis and the results of treatment of congenital distal stricture of the urethra and vesicorenal reflux are reported. In 31% of our patients with congenital distal urethral stenosis a vesico ureteral or vesico-renal reflux was found. Following distal urethrotomy the reflux healed spontaneously in 40% of the patients. It is emphasized that before an antireflux plasty a subvesicale obstruction should be ruled out. This includes distal congenital stricture of the urethra and when this diagnosis is suspected a reflux cystogram should be carried out.
