Penile/Panurethral and Fossa Navicularis Strictures – Summary
Dmitriy Nikolavsky, MD, focuses on penile strictures and discusses their etiology, anatomical considerations, and treatment options. In this 10-minute presentation, Dr. Nikolavsky shares that current surgical techniques have shifted from multi-stage procedures to single-stage approaches using buccal mucosal grafts, which have shown improved success and lower complication rates. Key procedures discussed include the Asopa and Kulkarni techniques.
The discussion highlights evolving strategies for managing urethral strictures, underscoring a trend towards less invasive, more effective interventions prioritizing patient outcomes and satisfaction. The advancements in this field indicate a significant move towards transurethral approaches, with ongoing research aiming to refine and improve surgical techniques.
