Results: The most frequent pre-operative symptom was dysuria (n=18), followed by incontinence (n=14), and these symptoms persisted until 3 months post-operatively in one and six patients, respectively. Pre-operative incontinence was cured in eight patients; however, de novo stress urinary incontinence occurred in five patients within a month after surgery. Submucosal macroplastique injection was administered to these patients; of whom, one was cured and three showed an improvement. Recurrent UD was found in seven patients at a mean of 14.14±17.21 months post-operatively, and a repeat diverticulectomy was performed in six of them; of these, one recurred again and was cured after the third diverticulectomy. Urethral strictures were observed in two patients wit...
