Abstract
Urethral stricture (US) is a common disease among men and is a complex urological pathology. In recent years, the number of patients with this disease is growing rapidly and varies from 0.6% to 0.9% of the total population, depending on the age of the patients. In 46.51% of men over the age of 45, the main cause of urethral stricture was the result of transurethral surgery, according to data from SV Zhou and co-authors.
