Abstract
We have had experience with 264 patients suffering from urethral stricture between 1951 and 1966. During these years we have performed 19 surgical operations: 17 end-to end anastomosis, one Badenoch pull-through operation and one Johanson's operation. In each case of the end-to-end anastomosis and the Badenoch pull-through operation, urethral fistula was developed, but the former was corrected by a Stefan's operation and the latter by resuturing the original incision by chemotherapy. The other 16 cases were performed without complications. Furthermore, the patient who underwent the Johanson's operation is performing well at the present time, nearly 20 days after the operation.
