Access to training in urethral reconstruction remains limited in many parts of the world. This video atlas was created to help bridge that gap by making practical surgical education more accessible to surgeons everywhere.Bringing together the experience of reconstructive urologists from around the world, this book presents a wide spectrum of complex urethroplasty procedures in a format that combines high-resolution 4K and HD surgical videos with clear narration and supporting text. Across 41 chapters, it demonstrates the management of challenging scenarios—including near-obliterative strictures, hypospadias cripples, glans resurfacing, and substitution urethroplasty with flaps—using step-by-step guidance that allow surgeons to observe real procedures and understand surgical decision-making.Built around the fundamental principle of surgical training — see one, assist one, do one — this video atlas serves as a digital learning platform for fellows and practicing reconstructive urologists, supporting skill development and the ongoing advancement of patient care worldwide.

Urethral stricture disease is a vast entity encompassing many different pathologies that can affect the entire urethra. Surgical treatment can vary greatly depending on the location, length, severity, and etiology of urethral disease. Furthermore, over the past few decades, multiple techniques and concepts have been developed and described that further improve patient outcomes but complexify urethral stricture management for reconstructive urologists who must be up to date on all established and novel techniques.This book aims to provide a detailed, descriptive atlas of all types of urethroplasty. Each chapter will provide a detailed step-by-step description of each surgery and detailed intraoperative photographs for visual aid. The tips and tricks and management algorithms of this book will make this book an indispensable reference for the novice reconstructive urologist.
