Abstract
Patients (38) treated by an immediate realignment of the urethra after a traumatic rupture by urethrography, panendoscopy and clinical assessment were reviewed. Of these 38 patients, 19 have not required urethral dilatation for 4 yr or more and 26 for 2 yr or more, thus accomplishing with 1 operation satisfactory urinary tract function without stricture. An immediate repair offered the best results to patients with minimum surgical procedures insofar as the formation of strictures was concerned. The interference with potency was unknown.
