Vesical neck contractures occur following 5 to 10 per cent of transurethral prostatectomies and an even smaller number of enucleative prostatectomies. Recurrences following both conservative and surgical treatment are common and present management problems to the urologist. Seven patients with recurrent vesical neck contractures were managed with reresection and steroid injection. One hundred per cent of patients responded to this although 1 patient required two procedures. The use of hydrocortisone sodium succinate (Solu-Cortef) versus triamcinolone acetonide (Kenalog) preparations are discussed.
