Abstract
A total of 25 patients with a long urethral stricture involving the bulbomembranoprostatic urethra underwent excision of the afflicted region via the perineal approach with end-to-end anastomosis. Liberation of the distal urethra provided sufficient length for anastomosis without tension of the healthy urethra. Satisfactory results were obtained in 23 of the 25 patients without any functional disturbance of sphincter control.
