[5-year treatment results of urethral stenosis using internal urethrotomy in adults].
The authors reviewed the records of 69 patients with a mean age of 51 years treated for single (81%) or multiple (19%) urethral strictures, in whom the first operation to be performed was endoscopic internal urethrotomy with a follow-up of at least 5 years. The mean follow-up was 71 months. The actuarial rate of good results was 27.2 +/- 11% at 5 years. The success rate of repeated internal urethrotomy was satisfactory, but was not evaluated with the same follow-up (62.5% after the first repeat urethrotomy with a mean follow-up of 13 months).
