Treatment of Urethral Stricture in Men with Bladder Neck Stenosis After Surgery for Benign Prostatic Obstruction

This protocol addresses men who develop non-obliterative bladder neck stenosis (BNS) following surgical treatment for benign prostatic obstruction — a recognised cause of post-operative urethral outflow impairment requiring a specific management approach.

Clinical scenario

Male patient with non-obliterative bladder neck stenosis and a prior history of surgery for benign prostatic obstruction. The anatomical and functional characteristics of non-obliterative BNS in this setting determine the recommended first-line intervention.

Treatment approach (partial overview)

First-line management for this scenario involves an endoscopic surgical approach targeting the bladder neck stenosis directly — the complete procedure, eligibility criteria, and step-by-step protocol are available in the full structured regimen.
