Abstract
ROCA EDREIRA, A. et al. Buccal mucosa urethroplasty in anterior urethral structures. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2008, vol.32, n.5, pp.517-521. ISSN 0210-4806.
Buccal mucosal graft can be used for succesfull repair in both pendulous and bulbar strictures. Material and methods: We present our experience with buccal mucosal graft repair in 8 patients with onlay patch that varies from 4 to 16 cm. in length. Three pendulous, two bulbar and three panurethral strictures were repaired. These patients were observed for 36 to 60 months. Results: No stricture recurrences were observed. Only one patient had lower lip paresthesia for six months.
Keywords : Urethra; Stricture; Buccal mucosa.
