Optical urethrotomy is a relatively new means of treating urethral stricture. We performed the procedure on 100 ambulatory patients using only topical anesthesia and sedation in some. The patients were followed a minimum of one year. Our success rate for cure following one procedure was 66 per cent; however, those patients not cured required less frequent dilations after urethrotomy. We believe that this is a safe and effective means of treating urethral strictures in the outpatient setting with little morbidity and discomfort and with considerable economic savings.
光学尿道切开术是一种治疗尿道狭窄的相对较新的方法。我们对100例门诊患者实施了该手术,部分患者仅使用局部麻醉和镇静。对患者进行了至少一年的随访。一次手术后的治愈成功率为66%;然而,那些未治愈的患者在尿道切开术后所需的扩张次数较少。我们认为,这是一种在门诊环境中治疗尿道狭窄的安全有效的方法,发病率和不适感低,且能节省大量费用。
