Introduction. Currently, the most common method of treating extended urethral strictures is augmentation urethroplasty using oral mucosa grafts. Analysis of the long-term outcomes of this surgery type shows a high incidence of relapses and complications.Purpose of the study. To improve the outcomes of augmentation urethroplasty, in particular the dorsal inlay (Asopa) technique, in patients with extended spongy urethral strictures by minimizing the risk of recurrent strictures.Materials and methods. The study is based on an analysis of the surgery in 90 patients (aged 18-72 years) with extended spongy urethral strictures. Seventy patients (group I) underwent dorsal inlay augmentation urethroplasty according to the Asopa technique, and 20 patients (group II) — according to the author's modified technique. Statistical data analysis was carried out using the SPSS ver.26 software (SPSS Inc. Chicago, IL, USA).Results. A comparative analysis of the course of the early postoperative period showed a lower number of complications in group II patients compared to group I — 20.0% versus 34.3%, respectively. The recurrent strictures were registered for groups I and II in 18.8% and 5.6% of cases 6 months after surgery, respectively. The recurrent urethral narrowing was most often localized in the area of distal anastomosis between the buccal graft and the native urethra in patients from both groups.Conclusion. The modified dorsal inlay augmentation urethroplasty technique developed and implemented in clinical practice by increasing the internal urethral lumen in the areas of proximal and distal anastomosis between the buccal graft and the native spongy urethral body allows minimizing the risks of recurrent urethral narrowing after augmentation urethroplasty.

Abstract Objective This study was aimed to assess the long-term outcomes of recurrent ventral curvature (VC) repaired in early childhood after transverse preputial island flap urethroplasty. Materials and Methods A total of 378 patients underwent transverse preputial island flap urethroplasty between January 2000 and January 2005 at our hospital. Of these patients, 43 were invited for assessment of VC after puberty. The age at surgery, types of hypospadias, degrees of recurrent VC, and surgical procedures were analyzed. Results The study included 43 patients with a mean age of 15.9 years (range, 12.3–17.9). The average age at the time of primary surgery was 1.9 years (range, 1.2–3.6). Of 43 patients, recurrent VC was identified in 14 (32.5%). In total, 8 out of 16 patients (50.0%) were successfully treated by urethral plate transection with skin release during the primary surgery, and 6 out of 27 patients (28.6%) underwent additional dorsal plication (DP; p = 0.093). Severe recurrent VC was observed in four, moderate curvature was observed in four, and mild curvature was observed in six cases. Recurrent VC was present more often in patients with complications (34.6 vs. 24.1%, p = 0.331), especially in severe urethral strictures that required open surgical reconstruction (p = 0.039). Conclusion Although the patients in our study represent only a small portion of the overall hypospadias population, it is notable that 32.5% of these patients showed recurrent VC, including 28.6% of patients with transection plus DP. We suggest long-term follow-up of hypospadias at least during adolescence or even into adulthood.
