Abstract
Introduction. Post-coital cystitis is not a separate nosologic unit, but belongs to recurrent urinary tract infection. Surgical interventions are only recommended in cases where conservative treatment fails to provide relief.Objective. To evaluate the results of post-coital cystitis prophylaxis in urethral transposition.Materials & methods. A retrospective study of 46 patients who underwent surgical treatment in the volume of transposition of the distal urethra from 2011 to 2013 was conducted in the clinic of Urology of MSUMD based on the Spasokukotsky Moscow Clinical Hospital.Results. Based on subjective reports from patients, urethral transposition was found to be effective in 71.7% of cases. Half of the participants reported no recurrence of cystitis within the past year, and over half (67%) reported no inflammatory episodes after undergoing surgery.Conclusion. The findings suggest that urethral transposition is an effective and relatively safe treatment option for patients with post-coital cystitis who have failed to respond to conservative treatments.
