@risa6069 I had stricture at junction of bladder and urethra due to excessive straining on the toilet.
Wire fulguration did the trick and so far🤞it’s been good.
Yours is in an odd place but who knows? I think they excise the tissue and put a stent in place to direct tissue growth ‘around’ the surgical site. Best,
Phil

@heavyphil
Thanks Phil. Suspect due to damage caused when catheter fitted. Seems to happen ocassionally. More regular at bladder neck closer to surgery like yours. Glad your issue resolved ok. R
