Risk calculator for prediction of treatment-related urethroplasty failure in patients with penile urethral strictures

ConclusionsLong-term prognosis in patients who underwent penile urethroplasty is uncertain. To date, our risk-calculator represents the first tool that might help physicians to predict the risk of treatment failure at 10  years. According to our model, such risk is largely influenced by the etiology of the stricture, the use of graft, and patient’s smoking habits.
