Departments of Urology, University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf and Asklepios Clinic Hamburg-Harburg, WHMM, Hamburg, Germany.
Purpose: We assessed the success rate of open reanastomosis for highly recurrent bladder neck stenosis resistant to transurethral treatment. Due to the paucity of available data the success rate of this procedure is not well defined, although it can be a last treatment option before urinary diversion.
Materials And Methods: A total of 158 patients were treated for bladder neck stenosis in 1998 to 2007, of whom 20 underwent open reanastomosis for highly recurrent or complex bladder neck stenosis after radical prostatectomy and were seen for followup 3 months postoperatively.
