Abstract

We define disintegrating perineum disease (DPD) as a destructive, chronic, purulent perineal inflammation resulting in multiple fistulae on the perineum, scrotum, peno-scrotal area and thigh. The perineal sepsis and fistulae do not respond to appropriate antibiotic treatment and temporary urinary diversion via suprapubic catheter. The etiology of this entity may be underlying urethral stricture disease or perineal skin and rectal disease. The aim of this study is to describe the patient profile, management and outcome of the different treatment modalities of DPD in patients with underlying urethral strictures.
