Abstract
- From July 1982 to February 1984, we performed 21 times of microsurgery for urethroplasty and pyeloplasty: 11 times in 11 cases of hypospadia, 4 times in 3 cases of urethrocutaneous fistula and 6 times in 5 cases of UPJ stricture. The results were as follows : 1. Success rate of urethroplasty was 81.8% (9/11) , but complication rate was 36.4% (4/11). 2. Success rate of urethrocutaneous fistular repair was 50% (2/4) . Fistula was recurred in two cases after first repair of urethrocutaneous fistula. 3. Success rate of pyeloplasty was 100%.
