title: [Complex reconstructive surgery of cervico-urethral sclerosis after radical prostatectomy, due to endoscopic solution failure].
abstract: The sclerosis of the cervico-urethral union is one of the complications that may arise after a radical prostatectomy, in most cases, the endoscopic treatment usually solves it. We introduce repair by open approach of a sclerosis cervico-urethral after radical prostatectomy that did not respond to endoscopic management. The surgical technique had two times, the first perineal and a second time with hypogastric approach. After six months of this complex surgery an artificial sphincter was placed to patient. The patient is asymptomatic and continent after three years of follow up surgery.
