摘要:

Permanent stents for urethral strictures have established a place as one of the treatment options for carefully selected stricture cases. Temporary stents are a new possibility for urethral strictures but long-term results are needed. Biodegradable urethral stents are an interesting development but more work is necessary before their place can be defined for urethral strictures.As an alternative to sphincterotomy, permanent stents relieve the obstruction of a dyssynergic distal sphincter following spinal injury. Temporary stents may have a limited role.Biodegradable stents avoid the need for temporary catheterization after laser and other high-energy treatments of the prostate. Arguments for and against temporary and permanent stents for prostate obstruction will continue for some time. Available stents are all satisfactory within their limitations. Further design improvements should produce even better results.

摘要:

The advantages of laparoscopic urologic procedures have fueled the desire to push the envelope of operative applications in innovative directions. From the original diagnostic procedures, new ideas, methodologies and technologies have evolved to allow for successful reconstructive uses. In this review, recent work in laparoscopic reconstructive procedures will be highlighted including technological advances and patient outcomes.

摘要:

Cryotherapy using multiple perineal probes combined with urethral preservation and monitoring by linear ultrasound gives local control in up to 90% of patients. The technique is minimally invasive and repeatable. Potential complications are serious. Incontinence varies from less than 3 to 48% but usually resolves within 6 months. Fistulation can be avoided. Impotence occurs in 65-90% of patients.
