Urethroplasty (Buccal Mucosa, End-to-End) Surgery
Urethroplasty is the gold-standard surgical treatment for urethral stricture disease. At the Urethra & Penile Surgery Center, we specialize in advanced reconstructive techniques, including Buccal Mucosa Graft Urethroplasty and End-to-End Urethroplasty, offering patients long-lasting relief, restored urinary function, and improved quality of life.
Buccal Mucosa Urethroplasty: Uses tissue from the inner cheek (buccal mucosa) to reconstruct the narrowed urethral segment. This tissue is durable, resilient, and integrates seamlessly into the urethra.
End-to-End Urethroplasty: The scarred urethral segment is surgically removed, and the two healthy ends are reconnected for a natural urine flow.
Both procedures are performed with precision under anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort and maximum success.
Hospital stay is usually 2–4 days, depending on the case.
A urinary catheter is placed temporarily for healing (usually 2–3 weeks).
Most patients return to daily activities within a few weeks.
Full recovery and optimal function are achieved in 4–6 weeks.
Success rates of 85–95%, higher than repeated endoscopic procedures.
Provides long-term relief from stricture symptoms.
Significant improvement in urinary flow and overall quality of life.
- You may be a candidate for urethroplasty if you have:

Urethroplasty is a surgical procedure to repair or reconstruct the urethra, usually performed for urethral strictures that block urine flow.
In this procedure, tissue is taken from the inside of the mouth (cheek lining) and used to reconstruct the narrowed section of the urethra.
This technique involves removing the scarred part of the urethra and directly joining the two healthy ends together. It is ideal for short strictures.
If you experience frequent urinary tract infections, weak urine flow, straining, or repeated failures with endoscopic procedures (like dilatation/VIU), you may be a candidate.
Success rates are very high—typically 85–95%—making it the gold standard treatment for urethral strictures.
Patients usually spend 2–4 days in the hospital. A urinary catheter remains for 2–3 weeks, and most people return to normal activities within 4–6 weeks.
No. With advanced anesthesia and pain management, discomfort is minimal. Pain is usually well controlled with medications after surgery.
Possible risks include bleeding, infection, narrowing of the urethra again, or temporary numbness at the graft site (if buccal mucosa is used). These are rare with expert surgical care.
