  • Title: Urethroscopic holmium:YAG laser epilation of urethral diverticular hair follicles following hypospadias repair.
    Author: Beiko D, Pierre SA, Leonard MP.
    Journal: J Pediatr Urol; 2011 Apr; 7(2):231-2. PubMed ID: 20970385.
    Abstract:
    Urethral hair and diverticula are well described long-term complications following urethroplasty or hypospadias repair. Endoscopic laser ablation is an uncommonly reported treatment option for a symptomatic hair-bearing urethra, and holmium laser hair epilation has not been previously reported in the literature. We report the first case of urethroscopic holmium laser ablation of urethral diverticular hair follicles and the outcome.
