Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether the natural course of urethral stricture disease could be modified following urethrotomy by teaching patients intermittent self-catheterization. Preliminary results in 42 patients show that postoperative urine flow rates can be maintained if this method of ‘low-friction’ catheterization is adopted. The technique has been well received by an elderly group of patients and can be recommended for wider use.
