Introduction

Urethral stricture disease (USD) is a common urological problem. The aetiology of strictures has been changing. Different treatment modalities are available.

Objectives

To present the pattern and management of USD in Port Harcourt.

Subjects and methods

This was a retrospective study of all cases of USD treated in Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital between 2005 and 2015. All the case notes of patients treated for USD were retrieved. Data on demography, aetiology, site, treatment and outcome of treatment of USD were collated and analyzed using SPSS 20.0.

Results

Within the period, 194 patients with urethral stricture were treated. There were 188 males (96.9%) and 6 females (3.1%). The mean age was 48 ± 9.24 SD years. One hundred and forty four strictures (74.22%) were due to trauma. Of these, 37 (19.07%) were iatrogenic and 107 (55.15%) resulted from road traffic accidents, fall astride, etc. Forty eight (24.75%) and 2(1.03%) had post inflammatory and malignant urethral strictures respectively.Eighty two patients (42.27%) had anterior urethral stricture; while 78 (40.20%) had posterior urethral strictures. Twenty eight (14.43%) patients had long segment stricture involving both anterior and posterior segments. Twenty four and 71 patients had substitution and anastomotic urethroplasties respectively. One patient had penectomy for malignant stricture while 61 had endoscopic surgery. Twenty two percent had complications including: bleeding, wound infection and re-stricture. The stricture recurrence rate was 11.34%.

Conclusion

Trauma is the leading cause of USD in Port Harcourt. Iatrogenic strictures were common. Urethroplasty gives satisfactory outcome. Efforts should be made to reduce urethral injuries.  相似文献

目的 了解国内近年男性尿道狭窄的病因与治疗方式的变化状况. 方法 回顾性收集2004年1月至2009年12月国内8个医疗中心收治的3455例男性尿道狭窄患者的资料,分析尿道狭窄的主要病因、治疗方法及随时间变迁病因和治疗技术的变化. 结果 3455例患者的病因分别为:外伤1833例(53.05%),其中骨盆骨折1327例(38.41%),骑跨伤506例(14.65%);医源性1181例(34.18%),其中经尿道手术602例(17.42%),尿道下裂术后291例(8.42%),留置导尿管164例(4.75%);其他较少见的为尿道炎201例(5.82%),硬化性苔藓样病149例(4.31%),原因不明者91例(2.63%)等.2004 - 2006年,腔内技术是治疗尿道狭窄最为常见的方法,共709例(52.67%);而2007 -2009年这种技术应用减少,共726例(34.42%),两者间差异有统计学意义(P<0.01).2007 - 2009年开放性尿道成形术逐年增多(1243例,58.94%),与2004 - 2006年相比(563例,41.83%)差异有统计学意义(P<0.01). 结论 外伤和医源性损伤是尿道狭窄的常见原因,近年逐渐增多;尿道狭窄治疗方法主要是腔内微创手术和开放性尿道成形.2007 - 2009年经腔内手术比例显著下降,而开放性尿道成形手术比例显著上升.  相似文献

Introduction

To describe the social impact of a colostomy on indigent families and affected children with anorectal malformations (ARM) or Hirschsprung's disease (HD) in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, we specifically targeted very low-income households that attended an international medical brigade for ARM and HD in 2016.

Methods

The impact of a colostomy on the families and children's daily life was analyzed by personal interviews with a questionnaire.

Results

Twenty families with children were included in the study. Children's age ranged from 5 months to 27 years (median 2.31). Annual income was reported to be less than $500 USD in 42.8%. Impairment of daily family life by the colostomy was reported in 85%. Parents of preschool children younger than 7 years are more affected than parents of older children, whereas children older than 7 years reported on more social problems. Moreover, 50% of the school-aged children did not attend school owing to issues directly related to their colostomy.

Discussion

Colostomies for children in the low middle-income country Honduras have significant social and economic implications for low-income families. In ARM and HD, medical brigades can offer help for definitive surgical repair to overcome and shorten the period of a colostomy presence to improve physical and psychosocial impairment, especially when performed before the children reach the school age.

Type of study

Cost Effectiveness Study.
