Long-time urethral catheterization may be responsible for various complications such as urethral stricture, urethral fracture, urinary tract infections, and hypospadias. Hypospadias is the most common congenital anomaly of male external genitalia. However, urethral catheter-induced iatrogenic hypospadias is a rare entity. In this article, we describe a case of an elderly male who was found to have iatrogenic hypospadias 2 months after urinary catheterization.

Introduction: Panurethral strictures represent the most severe form within the anterior urethral stricture spectrum, requiring more technically complex repairs and resulting in poorer outcomes compared to localized anterior urethral strictures (penile or bulbar). This abstract aims to describe the distinct characteristics of patients with panurethral strictures in a low socioeconomic status population.

Methods: Patients presenting with localized anterior (penile or bulbar) or panurethral strictures at University Hospital in Newark, NJ, between 2021 and 2023 were retrospectively identified.

Introduction: Distal anterior urethral strictures (DAUS) affect the meatus, navicular fossa (NF) and penile urethra (PU). The main causes are inflammatory (lichen sclerosous [LS]), traumatic iatrogenic, or idiopathic. Post-hypospadias stenosis is common and constitutes a separate entity, dealt with in a separate article.

Introduction: The treatment tactics of patients with recurrent urethral stricture requires an integrated approach. An increase in the treatment efficiency is possible not only through improvements in surgical technique, but also by influencing the pathogenetic mechanisms of the formation of urethral stricture and stimulating regeneration.

Aim: To evaluate the efficiency of reconstructive procedures using platelet-rich plasma in patients with recurrent urethral stricture.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the etiology of urethral stricture disease (USD) in a large series of patients undergoing urethroplasty.

Material And Methods: The multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted at two reconstructive urology referral centers in years 2015-2022. Prior to the surgical intervention, all patients underwent diagnostic procedures including retrograde urethrography and voiding cystourethrography.
