title: [Postoperative sclerosis of the bladder neck: pathogenic mechanisms].
abstract: A study was conducted in 69 patients with postoperative sclerosis of the vesical neck to analyze the different pathogenic mechanisms that have been put forward. This complication, however, could not be ascribed to any underlying cause. It presents in patients who undergo surgery of the prostate early, when their adenoma is generally small and frequently with inflammatory lesions as those of chronic prostatitis. Surgery appears to be the triggering mechanism in these patients who are likely to be predisposed to developing this condition as some patients are predisposed to develop keloid from cicatricial hypertrophy.
