  • Title: Etiology, diagnosis, and management of urethral strictures in children.
    Author: Scherz HC, Kaplan GW.
    Journal: Urol Clin North Am; 1990 May; 17(2):389-94. PubMed ID: 2336747.
    Abstract:
    Urethral strictures in children, like those in adults, are problems whose management embodies all that is basic to urology. It is helpful to think of strictures according to etiology: congenital, infectious-inflammatory, and traumatic (iatrogenic and noniatrogenic). The treatment options are diversion (nearly always temporary), manipulation, and repair. The authors also review their research on urethral healing.
