How Staged Repair (Bracka) is performed
Staged repair is often used for severe or poor tissue condition cases. In the first stage, the penis is straightened under general anesthesia, and a graft (usually foreskin or oral mucosa) is applied to the glans/dorsum of the penis to reconstruct the urethral plate and promote healing. After the tissue matures, the second stage is performed, in which the reconstructed plate is tubularized into a new urethra, and the urethral opening and appearance are reshaped. At the same time, a urinary catheter and dressing are placed for fixation. Postoperative monitoring focuses on the graft status, drainage, and signs of infection. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific information is subject to specialist assessment and hospital plan.
