A Survey of Contemporary National Practice Patterns for Treating Male Anterior Urethral Stricture in Japan
Japanese urologists exhibit limited urethroplasty experience and widely utilize transurethral treatments. The majority of members prefer to refer to a specialist, indicating that, in addition to the difficulty of urethroplasty, making indication decisions is also challenging. It is hoped that evidence-based medical practice will become more widespread.
