A recently developed ultrasonographic technique was described to evaluate the anterior urethra in 10 men suspected to have urethral stenoses. With the patient in frog leg position, during a perfusion of the urethra with saline through a catheter positioned at the beginning of the urethra, penile, transscrotal and transperineal scanning of the urethra was obtained. In all patients a diagnosis of urethral stenoses was made. After sonographic evaluation all patient underwent retrograde urethrogram and internal urethrotomy, that confirmed the diagnosis made by ultrasound. The urethral ultrasound provides valuable informations about the number, extent, position of the strictures and eventual scarring of the periurethral tissue. Urethral ultrasonography can be used as alternative imaging modality to the conventional radiological techniques.
