Treatment of a recurrent bulbar urethral stricture after Urolume wallstent implantation with a second inner Urethrospiral-2 urethral stent.
Although the Urolume wallstent has been proven to be effective in the treatment of bulbar urethral strictures, in some instances obstruction may recur. We present a patient in whom recurrent stricture after wallstent implantation was managed by insertion of a second inner Porges Urethrospiral-2 stent inside the first one.
