It helps patients with conditions such as birth defects, cancer, neurological disorders, male and female urine incontinence, strictures, scar tissue in the urinary tract organs, and pelvic floor prolapse.
Reasons for Reconstructive Procedures
Your doctor may have a number of reasons for having to perform male reconstructive urological techniques to correct complications due to disease, injury, or major medical procedures.
Urethral Strictures
Hardened tissue in the urethra that can obstruct urine flow is called urethral strictures. Men are rarely born with urethral strictures, which develop over time due to infection or medical procedures involving the urethra. They may be caused by inflammation or scar tissue from surgery, urinary tract infections, injury, or repeated catheterization. Urethral strictures may also be caused by pressure from a growing tumor near the urethra, although this is rare.

- procedures that place a tube into the urethra, such as a catheter or cystoscope
