Visual internal urethrotomy was used in the treatment of urethral strictures in 103 patients. The procedure was performed mostly under local anesthesia. Urethral catheter for forty-eight hours or urethral splinting for two weeks was used as complementary treatment in some cases. We obtained an overall success rate of 95.1 per cent.
