So Saskia, how would you proceed to recurrent structure after endoscopic treatment? Do you believe there's a place for drug-coated balloon dilatation?
14:34
Well, I personally don't use the drug-coated balloons, but this would be a topic for another podcast, I guess.

but I would then also for sure also advise everyone to perform another urethrocramp first and then it depends on the stricter findings and as Felix mentioned on the previous history I would either go for an non-transsecting end-to-end anastomosis if it's a really short one but often after some endoscopic treatment either it's balloon or dilatation or internal urethrotomy often the stricture gets a bit longer at least in my experience and then often it is then for me the need for an augmented urethroplasty.

But with the drug-coated balloons, it is really important to mention that this should stay in the hands of urethral experts and that it should be used within the clear indications.

Anyone else who wants to comment on urethroplasties and how you do it and some guidance?
19:31
Yes, I just want to, I agree with what Felix and Leo said.
19:36
I just want to make a comment on this dorsal or ventral approach.
19:40
So it is a matter of, I think, where we feel comfortable as we've been trained and also then what arguments makes almost sense.
