Urethroplasty – Permanent Solution for Urethral Stricture
Safe and advanced surgery to repair narrowed urethra, restore normal urine flow, and prevent recurrent infections.
What is Urethroplasty?
Urethroplasty is a definitive surgical procedure to repair or reconstruct the urethra that has narrowed due to a urethral stricture (scar tissue). Unlike dilation or endoscopic urethrotomy, which are temporary measures, urethroplasty provides a long-term or
permanent cure.

Urethroplasty Diagnosis (Before Surgery)
Urethroplasty Treatment (Surgical Approach)
• Recommended for short urethral strictures (usually ≤2cm).
• The surgeon removes the scarred portion of the urethra and reconnects the healthy ends.
• Provides excellent long-term success with minimal recurrence.
• Used for long or complex strictures.
• A graft is taken from the inner cheek (buccal mucosa) and sutured to the narrowed urethral segment.
• Expands the urethra and restores normal function without tension on the tissue.
• Performed when buccal grafts are not suitable or when large reconstruction is needed.
• A flap of skin from the penis is used to repair or widen the urethra.
• Useful in cases of extensive scarring or previous failed surgeries.
• Done for severe strictures, traumatic injuries, or cases with significant infection or tissue loss.
• Stage 1: Diseased tissue is removed and urethra is opened.
• Stage 2 (after healing): Urethra is tubularized and reconstructed.
• Ensures optimal healing and reduced recurrence in complex cases.
• Strengthens the urethral repair using surrounding tissue (spongiosum).
• Improves blood supply and healing, especially in bulbar strictures.
• A catheter is placed for 2–3 weeks to support healing.
• Patients are monitored for urine flow, infection, and recurrence.
Why You Should Not Delay
Delaying urethroplasty may worsen urinary symptoms, cause repeated infections, lead to bladder or kidney damage, and affect overall quality of life. Early surgery ensures long-lasting relief and prevents complications.

Healic advises urethroplasty if you have a weak urine stream, difficulty urinating, frequent UTIs, pain, or urinary retention due to a stricture that has not improved with dilation or endoscopic treatment.
Depending on the stricture, Healic surgeons may remove the scarred segment and reconnect the urethra (EPA) or reconstruct it using grafts like buccal mucosa. A catheter is placed for healing.
Hospital stay is usually 3–5 days. The catheter remains for 2–3 weeks, and most patients return to light work in 3–4 weeks. Full healing takes a few months with Healic’s follow-up care.
