Abstract

Female urethral diverticula are a rare urological entity. Lately the incidence is increasing due to greater awareness and better imaging methods. Treatment modality of choice is transvaginal diverticulectomy with or without interposition of tissue between the vaginal and urethral wall. Multiple authors describe the use of an autologous tissue interposition graft (i.e., Martius fat pad, vaginal flap). However, to our knowledge, there are no reports of the use of biomaterial as interposition graft. We like to report our four and a half year single-center experience in transvaginal diverticulectomy with interposition of small intestinal submucosa (SIS).
