- W2749717643 abstract "Urethral stricture disease is the commonest cause of morbidity in urology practice in sub-Saharan Africa. In contrast, prostate disease is commonly cited as the leading cause of urological disease in most urology practices in developed countries. In Africa, the aetiology of urethral stricture disease is compounded by a high prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), increasing levels of urethral trauma and over-stretched urological services. Thus, patients with prostate disease are treated with long-stay urethral catheters for periods often up to two years. This increases the risk of urethral stricture. The predominant aetiological factor is sexually transmitted infection due to gonococcus or chlamydia. This frequently leads to long severe strictures with spongiofibrosis, especially in the anterior urethra where the periurethral glands are located. These strictures respond poorly to urethral dilatation, optical urethrotomy or primary anastomosis. The majority of strictures in Africa are best treated by open substitution urethroplasty. The gold standard has been the use of buccal mucosa graft for this substitution procedure. This procedure poses a great challenge in most centres with limited resources. In these settings, we have found that the use of a dorsal onlay free preputial graft is easy to perform and gives good results." @default.
