Resumen

Objective: Urethral stricture is any narrowing of the urethra that may or may not cause alterations in urine flow. Among the management options, urethral reconstruction through urethroplasty has been classified as the gold standard. We sought to demonstrate the functional results in the voiding pattern of patients with a diagnosis of urethral stricture undergoing urethral reconstruction. Method: Ambispective cohort of patients undergoing urethral reconstruction through urethroplasty operated in clinica Foscal between 2013 and 2021. Sociodemographic variables were collected. We described postoperative complications, we evaluated the voiding pattern, the degree of associated erectile dysfunction, the quality of life and the degree of postoperative satisfaction, and we analyzed the factors associated with failure of the procedure. Results: One hundred and twenty urethroplasties in 110 patients, 53 with excision and primary anastomosis (EPA) and 67 with graft. The average age was 56 years, 89% had undergone previous treatments, mainly urethral dilations (46.6%) and internal urethrotomy (35.83%). The main location was bulbar, and the main etiology was traumatic. Re-stenosis occurred in 24.5% of EPA and in 43.28% of grafts. Eighty six percent reported satisfaction with the procedure. Complications were higher in the graft group (31.34 vs. 24.53%). Conclusions: Our results demonstrate the functional results of urethral reconstruction with both techniques, with greater restenosis in the graft group. Most patients are satisfied with the results.
