Popis: | To report our experience with excision and primary anastomosis (EPA) for bulbar urethral stricture. Patients who underwent EPA for bulbar stricture between 2012 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed (n = 308). Successful urethroplasty was defined as the absence of the need for additional treatment. For follow-up, uroflowmetry was performed and the patients completed the validated Urethral Stricture Surgery Patient-reported Outcome Measure and Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM) questionnaires before (baseline) and 6 months after EPA. Overall patient satisfaction after urethroplasty was also evaluated. Urethroplasty was successful in 97.1% of patients (n = 299) with a median follow-up of 37 months. A total of 215 patients (69.8%) completed the questionnaires at 6 months postoperatively. The mean maximum flow rate, lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS)-total score, Peeling’s picture score, LUTS-specific quality of life, and EuroQol-visual analog scale scores improved significantly from 7.7 ml/s, 11.6, 3.3, 2.4, and 58.0 at baseline to 24.1 ml/s, 2.7, 1.9, 0.4, and 82.1 postoperatively (p |
