Etiology and current clinical characteristics of male urethral stricture disease: experience from a public teaching hospital in Senegal.

Abstract

Male urethral stricture in Senegal is often a sequela of gonococcal urethritis and is frequently detected because of infectious complications such as gangrene of the genitalia or urinary tract infections.

Its prevention in this geographical region thus requires fighting against sexually transmitted infections and treating appropriately and effectively all urethritis.
