Abstract
The distribution of the post-gonococcal stricture was related to the disposition of mucous glands in paraurethral glands by mapping the distribution of these glands in the human male urethra. Experimental study in the rat indicated the role of extravasation of urine in the pathogenesis of urethral stricture. The ultrastructure of urethral stricture tissue revealed features that suggest why some strictures are fibrous and other resilient.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
