Hybrid Surgery for Urethral Diverticulum Penetrating the Bladder

Key Points

To explore the effectiveness of a hybrid surgical approach for treating urethral diverticula that penetrate the bladder.
Evaluated a hybrid surgical strategy combining transvaginal and laparoscopic techniques
Focused on complex urethral diverticula cases affecting bladder integrity
The hybrid approach may improve surgical outcomes for challenging bladder-related urethral diverticula
Suggests potential benefits compared to traditional methods in complex cases

Abstract

This suggests that a hybrid approach combining the transvaginal and laparoscopic approaches might be useful for the surgery of complex urethral diverticula that affect the bladder.
