    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To search for a new method to repair distal urethral stricture resulting from urethroplasty of hypospadias. METHODS: From February 2000 to March 2004, 16 patients with distal urethral stricture were treated by use of cutting stricture urethra and their distal urethra were reconstructed with phallic flap. RESULTS: All operations were successful without complication of flap necrosis. After 7 days of operation, the patients had free micturition and thick stream of urine. Eleven patients were followed 2 months to 4 years, the satisfactory result was obtained. CONCLUSION: It is a simple and good method to reconstruct the distal urethra by superimposing the phallic flap on the cut stricture urethra after urethroplasty of hypospadias.
