I hope this is a useful refresher. Some key tips for surgical success of this procedure are;
- Gentle tissue handling
- Cool saline hemostasis (no cautery, bar skin)
- Magnification is ideal
- Fine suture
- Proximal extension 1cm beyond the bulbourethral glands
- Accurate apposition of urethral mucosa to skin.
