RESUMO
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of modified YV-plasty for refractory bladder neck contracture (BNC) caused by transurethral resection of prostate (TURP).Methods From June 2013 to March 2016,11 patients with BNCs secondary to TURP were included in this study.Their mean age was 63.7 years (range,56-73 years).All patients presented voiding difficulty and failed after 2 or more prior endoscopic treatments.Modified YV-reconstruction of bladder neck was performed,by incising the anterior wall of bladder neck in a T-shaped manner,and creating two well-vascularized and tension-free flaps,which offer the possibility to reconstruct a wide bladder neck.Results After a mean follow-up of 14.6 months (ranging 3-24 months),successful outcome was achieved in 9 patients without incontinence secondary by surgery.Recurrent voiding difficulty developed in 2 patients,which was cured after a following endoscopic treatment.Conclusion A wider bladder neck can be obtained through modified YV-reconstruction of bladder neck,while avoiding external urethral sphincter injury.It is an available option for refractory bladder neck contracture.
