I've been dealing with a urethral stricture for the last 3 years and have been doing dilation regularly. Now I'm considering surgery what are my options and is it the right time to go for it
Endoscopic urethrotomy.This procedure uses a thin, tubelike tool that has a lens, called a cystoscope. The cystoscope goes into the urethra. Then a tool is put through the cystoscope to remove the stricture or treat it with a laser. This surgical procedure has a faster recovery than do some other procedures.
