👉 Urethrotomy, also known as a urethral repair or urethrostomy, is a surgical procedure that involves removing the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the penis) and replacing it with an artificial tube called an urethoscope. This can be done if there are defects in the urethra, such as a narrowing or blockage of the urethra, which can cause urinary symptoms like pain, urgency, and difficulty urinating.
