Abstract
Nowadays there is not any specific technique for repairing the recurrent urethral stricture with retained urethral stent. We report a 49 year-old man with history of end to end urethroplasty 11 years ago who was referred with urethral stricture. He refused to undergo urethroplasty again, so the stricture was managed by Uventa stent insertion which failed after six months. Finally the patient underwent end to end urethroplasty with complete excision of the obstructed urethra, stent and surrounding periurethral fibrosis. End to end urethroplasty post Uventa stent stricture is an available option with good postoperative outcomes.
