Patient-reported outcomes after one-stage neourethral reconstruction in transmen with phalloplasty-associated strictures and fistulas.
Introduction: Urethral strictures and fistulas arising after gender-affirming surgery in transmen require meticulous management strategies. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of urethral reconstruction and patient satisfaction post-surgery.
Methods: A retrospective analysis examined peri- and postoperative data from transmen undergoing urethral reconstruction for urethral fistula and/or strictures at the distal urethral anastomosis between December 2017 and April 2023. Follow-up involved clinical examinations, uroflowmetry, and voiding cystourethrography. Patient satisfaction and quality of life were assessed using USS PROM and ICIQ-S questionnaires.
Results: Among 25 patients, 88% (n = 23) had urethral fistulas, and 48% (n = 12) had urethral strictures. 41% of fistula patients also had strictures, while 75% of stricture patients had concurrent fistulas. Previous surgeries for fistula or stricture repair were noted in 26% of cases. Techniques for stricture included modified flap (50%), buccal oral mucosal grafting (33%), and primary anastomosis (17%). Post-operative urethrogram revealed urethral strictures in 15% (n = 3) and urinary extravasation in an equal number. Postoperative uroflow parameters showed improvement (Qmax 18 ml/s, Qave 7.9 ml, time 37 s, volume 332 ml). Perioperative complications were low (n = 6, 24%), all grade one (Clavien-Dindo). Follow-up revealed that 33% required another surgical intervention. The mean six-item LUTS score was 6.7 (SD 3.9). Mean ICIQ-S overall satisfaction score was 8.6 (SD 1.6) and outcome score was 20 (SD 2.8).
Discussion: Our study found a significant recurrence rate of urethral strictures and fistulas post-surgery. Despite this, patient satisfaction remains high and complications are generally low-grade, highlighting the importance of expert surgical intervention.
期刊介绍:
The WORLD JOURNAL OF UROLOGY conveys regularly the essential results of urological research and their practical and clinical relevance to a broad audience of urologists in research and clinical practice. In order to guarantee a balanced program, articles are published to reflect the developments in all fields of urology on an internationally advanced level. Each issue treats a main topic in review articles of invited international experts. Free papers are unrelated articles to the main topic.
