PURPOSE: Low urinary flow rates are common after tubularized incised plate urethroplasty but the etiology remains unclear and may be related to low urethral compliance due to abnormal collagen concentrations and/or fewer elastic fibers in the healed urethral plate. We hypothesized that inserting a preputial mucosal graft over the dorsal raw area after the midline incision may avoid scarring and improve urethral compliance.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Adult rabbits were submitted to tubularized incised plate urethroplasty with or without inlay preputial graft according to a previously described protocol. Tissular concentrations of collagens I, III, IV, VI, VIII and XIII were measured. Histomorphometric analysis was used to quantify elastic fibers in the urethra. Tubularized incised plate urethroplasty with and without inlay preputial graft was compared to normal rabbit urethras (controls).
RESULTS: mRNA concentrations for collagens I, II and XIII were similar between controls and operated rabbits. The proportions between collagens I and III were 1.05, 0.87 and 1.21, respectively, in controls and animals undergoing tubularized incised plate urethroplasty with and without inlay preputial graft. mRNA concentrations for collagen IV and collagens VI/VIII tended to be higher and lower, respectively, in the operated urethras, despite showing statistical significance only for collagen VIII in animals undergoing tubularized incised plate urethroplasty with inlay preputial graft vs controls (p=0.02). The operated animals did not demonstrate a reduced number of elastic fibers in the urethral tissues compared to controls.
CONCLUSIONS: Elastic fiber number and distribution were similar between tubularized incised plate urethroplasty cases and controls, suggesting that decreased concentrations of elastic fibers do not explain the reduced urethral compliance after tubularized incised plate urethroplasty. The raw area determined by the dorsal urethral incision regenerated after standard tubularized incised plate urethroplasty, while cicatrization with fibrosis occurred in correspondence to the grafted areas after tubularized incised plate urethroplasty with inlay preputial graft.
