First Hospital of Hubei Medical College, Wuhan.

One-stage urethroplasty was performed for 10 patients with full length urethral stricture by using double skin tube from the perineum and scrotum. Follow-up after operations showed that voiding of urine returned to normal and no residual urine was found in all patients. Voiding urethrogram and cystoscopy showed neither stenosis nor hair, stone, urethral cyst and diverticula. This operation is simple and effective in addition to rare complication and no requirement of urethral dilatation. The treatment of full length urethral stricture and tubercular urethral stricture are also discussed.
