Abstract

The report of 4 female patients operated on for severe functional impairment of the urethra gives rise to a historical review of the development of bladder flap procedures. Two patients had urethral reconstruction with a rotary bladder flap and 2 patients had urethral lengthening according to Leadbetter. Indications, mechanisms of continence and technical aspects of both procedures are discussed.
