[Urethral stricture: one-stage urethroplasty using a free skin flap].
We report our experience of one-stage free skin graft urethroplasty in 18 patients, most of whom had iatrogenic stricture of the urethral bulb. Our results were similar to those reported in the literature, being satisfactory in about 80% of the cases, and were further improved by adjuvant procedures, such as urethrotomy. We consider that free skin graft urethroplasty is the most reliable method to treat strictures of the urethral bulb after failure of urethrotomy.
