Treatment of Urethral Stricture in Males with Bladder Neck Stenosis After Surgery for Benign Prostatic Obstruction
Clinical Scenario
This protocol applies to male patients who develop urethral stricture in the specific context of non-obliterative bladder neck stenosis following prior surgery for benign prostatic obstruction.
Male sex
Non-obliterative bladder neck stenosis
History of BPO surgery
Treatment Approach
Management centres on an endoluminal approach targeting the bladder neck stenosis, with the goal of stabilising the stricture over time. The full sequence of interventions, criteria for selection, and procedural details are set out in the complete protocol.
