Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Efficacy will be assessed by accuracy of the two diagnostic modalities in evaluation of length, site, number, luminal calibre, degree of spongiofibrosis of the stricture. Additionally, the findings will be evaluated regarding the urethra proximal to the stricture, corpora spongiosa surrounding the stricture.Timepoint: At completion of CT. At Completion of Voiding Urethrography. At completion of cystourethroscopy.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Utility of cystourethroscopy will be evaluated by accuracy of the cystourethroscopy in evaluation of length, site, number, luminal caliber, degree of spongiofibrosis of the stricture wherever feasible. 2. Risk factors will be evaluated by thorough assessment of the past history of the case under study through a detailed questionnaire as per our proforma. 3. The findings will be evaluated regarding extra luminal findings, adjacent organ injuries, and the associated complications. Timepoint: End of study of 30 cases.
