The Fox Chase-Temple Urologic Institute is one of the region’s highest-volume centers for urethral stricture treatment. Our reconstructive urologists are nationally recognized for managing both straightforward and highly complex cases, with excellent long-term outcomes. Patients frequently come after being told elsewhere that their condition could not be repaired.

Treatment depends on the size, location, and severity of the stricture. Options include dilation, endoscopic surgery (such as direct vision internal urethrotomy), grafting with tissue or buccal mucosa, and urethroplasty (open surgical reconstruction). Your surgeon will recommend the approach most likely to provide lasting results.
