OBJECTIVE To compare recurrence after urethroplasty, identifying associated risk factors for early recurrence.MATERIALS AND METHODS Among 262 urethroplasties (2001-2010) with >= 6 months of follow-up, we identified 65 patients (24.8%) with recurrence (defined by obstruction in the area of repair on cystoscopy).RESULTS Median stricture length was 4.5 cm (range 1-24 cm). Median follow-up was 85.2 (6.7-160.1) months, with median time to recurrence of 8.0 (0.5-88.0) months. Substitution urethroplasty was the most frequent repair (70.8%), followed by excision and primary anastomosis (23.1%). When graft was used, buccal was most common (66.0%), followed by abdominal wall skin (AWS) (24.5%). Twenty-one percent of recurrences presented within 3 months, 40.0% by 6 months, 55.4% by 1 year, whereas 9.2% recurred more than 5 years later. Recurrences
