Stricture of the membraniform portion of the urethra was diagnosed in 28, prostatic one--in 10, spongiform one--in 2 patients; changes in the prostate and seminal vesicles were revealed in 36. At operation, the scars of the narrowed urethra were excised en-block with the cicatricially changed prostate up to the neck of the urinary bladder, it was anastomosed to the unchanged portion of the urethra. Drainage was accomplished via the urethra by means of the Foley catheter and suprapubic drain. In all the patients, the independent uresis was restored.
