[The dysuria syndrome. Significance of urethral diameter for recurrent bacterial cystitis in the female].
Internal urethrotomy is still used in female patients for the prophylactic treatment of recurrent bacterial cystitis as well as for sterile dysuric voiding disorders. 72% of the bacterial cystitis group (n = 18) remained uninfected during the 1st year after the treatment. 60% of the women with sterile dysuria complaints reported a significant improvement after the surgical procedure. The success is most possibly due to improved urodynamic conditions. The necessity of urethrotomy in patients with recurrent bacterial cystitis is discussed. The etiology of sterile dysuric voiding disorders however remains unclear.
