OBJECTIVE: To evaluate outcomes of three urethroplasty techniques for pars fixa (PF) urethral strictures and provide a treatment algorithm based on stricture characteristics. The PF is an essential anatomic region of the neourethra created in gender-affirming phalloplasty and metoidioplasty. Urethral strictures in this region present a reparative challenge given its unique anatomy and vascularization.
METHODS: A total of 41 urethroplasties performed on 41 patients between March 2018 and June 2021 were reviewed at two surgical centers. A Heineke-Mikulicz (HM) repair was done for strictures under 20 mm when the proximal and distal urethral segments were mobile and supported a tension-free closure. Substitution urethroplasty with ventral onlay buccal mucosal graft was utilized for strictures under 40 mm not suitable for HM repair. Complex or long (≥40 mm) strictures were treated by two-stage Johansen urethroplasty. Success of each surgical approach was defined by a minimum of 12-month follow-up without the need for a repeat intervention.
RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 30.2 months (range: 12.4-52.0 months). Mean stricture length was 16.9 mm (range: 2-55 mm). Most strictures (46%) were located at the distal PF. HM urethroplasty had a success rate of 44% (n = 16). Substitution urethroplasty had a success rate of 92% (n = 13). Two-stage Johansen urethroplasty had a success rate of 75% (n = 12).
CONCLUSION: The success rates of PF urethral stricture repair ranged from 44% to 92% depending on the surgical approach, and the best reparative procedure depends on stricture length, severity, and local tissue mobility.
