made over the bougie à boule and extended. Sutures were placed at the apex and laterally to reapproximate the mucosa. Hemostasis was good. The urethra was recalibrated to 18 french at this point without difficulty. Neosporin ointment was
applied and the patient was sent from the operating room to the recovery room in satisfactory condition.
