Abstract

Endoscopic cold knife urethrotomy was done on 160 patients with urethral strictures. Of these patients 120 have been followed for 6 months to 2 years. The initially good results (56 per cent cured at 6 months) do not stand the test of time since only 25 per cent of the patients can be considered cured after 2 years. Despite these less than triumphant results endoscopic urethrotomy, which is performed easily and uncompromising to secondary urethroplasty, should be tried as a primary procedure.
