Buccal Mucosal Grafts in Surgery of Urethral Tuberculosis

The objective of the study: to analyze the effectiveness of surgery in patients with pos t-t uberculous urethral stricture s/o bliterations when buccal mucosa is used for reconstruction. Subjects and Methods. The surgery was performed in 5 patients with sequelae of specific urethral lesions such as extended strictures or obliterations. All patients underwent ureteroplasty with buccal graft ( BG ). In 4 cases, tubularized BG was used, and in 1 case it was onlay one. Results. The patients were followed up for 3-5 5 months. Over this period no relapse or severe complications were observed. Conclusion. Buccal ureteroplasty is a promising method for the treatment of pos t-t uberculous urethral stricture s/o bliterations with a high risk of other reconstructive surgeries.
