The technique was that bulbous urethra was intussuscepted into prostatic tissue only about 5-10mm and the superficial external layer of the bulbous urethra was sutured to superficial external surface of the prostate with 4-6 interrupted sutures at the point of intussusception. Of the 5 patients, 4 have and had satisfactory results and one with dilation.
