Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Based on 4 cases of infravesical obstruction due to extreme caliber disproportion between the posterior urethra and the penile urethra, a pathophysiological mechanism for this dynamic obstruction is given and endoscopic treatment is described. SUBJECTS:Four cases of membrano-bulbo-urethral junction (MBUJ) stenosis, seen between September 1995 and April 1996, are described. Two boys had previous successful valve resection but still showed extreme ballooning of the posterior urethra. The other 2 boys showed bladder instability on urodynamics and the male variant of the spinning top urethra on voiding cystourethrography (VCUG). RESULTS:All cases were successfully treated by endoscopic incision at the 12 o'clock position of the kink between the posterior and the penile urethra which is seen when the full bladder is expressed. Disproportion in the posterior urethra, seen on VCUG, together with bad urinary flow measured on uroflowmetry raise the suspicion of MBUJ stenosis. CONCLUSION:Although rarely seen, extreme caliber disproportion in the male urethra can cause obstruction. Ballooning of the posterior urethra, caused by urethral valves, bladder instability resisted by voluntary sphincter contraction or congenital posterior urethral dilatation, creates an obstructive kink in the urethra comparable to some obstructions in ureteropelvic junction stenosis. If suspicion of such a form of obstruction arises, cystoscopy during pressure on the full bladder is mandatory in order to see the obstruction, descending as a membrane from the vault of the urethra.
