Complete Urethral Reconstruction with Martius Fat Pad Transposition and Pubovaginal Sling

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video is a surgical procedure in which a 35-year-old female patient with a history of urethral complications undergoes a reconstruction of her urethra. The patient had previously undergone a reimplantation of an ectopic ureter and a cadaveric fasciolata suburethral sling. However, she developed a complete loss of her posterior urethra, possibly due to an infected remnant of a ureter. The goal of the surgery is to reconstruct the urethra, using tissue mobilization and closure techniques. A fat pad and a labia minora skin flap are also used to support and cover the repaired area. finally, a suburethral sling is placed to prevent urethral incompetence.
