Mouth vs. labia: which graft works best for female urethral repair?
NCT ID NCT07153861
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study compares two surgical techniques for treating a narrowed urethra in women: using a graft from the mouth or from the labia. Forty women with non-traumatic urethral stricture will be randomly assigned to one of the two procedures. The main goal is to see which graft leads to better urine flow after surgery.
