Guided dilatation and transurethral resection in one session for the treatment of the postprostatectomy obstructive complications above the verumontanum.

53 patients presenting with post-prostatectomy obstructive complications above the verumontanum were treated in a single session by means of guided dilatation of the stricture followed by transurethral resection of the stenosing fibrotic tissue. The results obtained in cases of vesical neck stenosis were very encouraging. Unsatisfactory results were observed in cases of cervicoprostatic fibrosclerosis where resection was insufficient for resolution of the obstruction. No failures or complications with the guided dilatation technique have been observed.
