Abstract

Background: Posterior urethral distraction deficits provide a complex clinical situation that often requires surgical intervention for reconstruction. These conditions might potentially occur as a result of traumatic accidents, strictures, or congenital abnormalities, hence presenting notable obstacles to the proper functioning of the urinary system.

Aim: The aim of this study is to the consequences of urine and sexual behaviour after posterior urethral distraction defect repair under anaesthesia.

Study Design: This is a prospective design study.

Duration and Place of the Study: This study was conducted at the Department of Urology, Hayatabad Medical Complex Peshawar between Jan 2021 and Jan 2022.

Material and Methods: The study included 100 male patients who underwent anaesthesia for posterior urethral distraction defect correction. Every participant in this study gave informed consent, which included detailed information about the study's objectives, methodology, and potential risks. A full collection of pre-operative data was collected, including demographic information, medical history, and first urine and sexual function examinations.

Results: There were 100 patients, with an average age of 45±8 years. Most of the patients were Asian (80%), followed by Caucasian (10%) and others (10%). The occupations were 30% professionals, 40% skilled workers, and 30% unskilled. A quarter of participants had comorbidities, 40% smoked, and 60% were non-smokers. patients had an average BMI of 26±3.

Conclusion: A significant proportion of the patients reported experiencing enhanced voiding patterns and urine flow rates, with improvements in libido and sexual satisfaction after the surgical intervention.
