BACKGROUND Two-sided dorsal plus ventral oral graft urethroplasty is a new urethra-sparing technique suggested in tight bulbar strictures which are too severe for a simple one-side grafting. The aim is to evaluate long-term outcomes and the success predictive factors of this technique. METHODS A descriptive retrospective study was conducted on 216 patients undergone dorsal plus ventral graft urethroplasty for bulbar strictures between 2002 and 2018 in a single high-volume center by a single surgeon (EP). The primary outcome measure was stricture recurrence at follow-up. Surgical procedure was considered failed when any postoperative instrumentation was needed. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis were performed. RESULTS Median follow-up was 98 months (IQR 41-131). Among the 216 patients, 188 (87%) were successful and 28 (13%) were failures. Most of the failures (78.4%) were observed during the first 7 years of follow-up, afterward failures were less frequently recorded. Stricture length |
