Table 2. The subjective and objective outcomes following non-transecting bulbar urethroplasty techniques.
Variables | Clinical assessment (patient satisfied with surgical outcome) (n, %) | Mean Qmax (mL/s) after surgery | Urethrogram (no evidence of stricture recurrence) (n, %) |
---|---|---|---|
Stricturoplasty (n=6) | 5 (83.3) | 25.1 | 5 (83.3)† |
NTABU* (n=43) | 41 (95.3) | 35 | 42 (97.7) |
ANTABU** (n=16) | 14 (87.5) | 25.7 | 16 (100.0) |
†, 50% reduction in urethral calibre in one other patient but good flow and happy with outcome at 25.1 month follow-up; *, non-transecting anastomotic bulbar urethroplasty; **, augmented non-transecting anastomotic bulbar urethroplasty.
