Oral Mucosal Graft Versus Labial Graft in Female Urethroplasty

Oral Mucosal Graft Versus Labial Graft in Female Urethroplasty: A Prospective Comparative Study

This study aims to compare the oral versus labial graft in female urethroplasty in female urethral stricture.

Female urethral stricture is an uncommon condition with an estimated prevalence of 4%-13% in women with bladder outlet obstruction.

Urethral reconstruction may become the treatment of choice in stricture recurrence following the failure of minimally invasive procedures. and the use of flaps and grafts has all been proposed. Different materials (e.g., vaginal and genital mucosal graft or flap, bladder mucosal flap, and oral mucosal graft) have been reported for augmentation urethroplasty.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Female patients with urethral stricture.
• Female patients with non-traumatic urethral stricture.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Female patients with traumatic urethral stricture.
• Female patients with systemic contraindications of surgery like bleeding disorders.
