Objective To summarize the clinical effect of urethroplasty using acellular dermal matrix patch for the treatment of anterior urethral stricture caused by lichen sclerosus.Methods The clinical data was analyzed retrospectively from 15 patients with anterior urethral stricture caused by lichen sclerosus treated with aeellular dermal matrix patch.Results The patients were followed up for 8-40 months.The urethral silicone stent was removed 4 weeks after operation in 15 cases and all the patients voided well 2 months after operation.The urinary peak flow rates ranged from 17.6 to 41.7 ml/s(mean,28.6ml/s).Urethral stricture occurred in 2 patients 3 months after operation undergoing discontinuous dilatation within 3 to 6 months,the patients voided very well.Conclusion It is feasible,safe and relatively simple to use acellular dermal matrix patch for anterior urethral stricture caused by lichen sclerosus.
