Diverticulum in the female urethra is a masquerading condition that causes untold misery in the patient. Because attempts at surgical correction may be technically difficult and occasionally result in serious complications, new operations and modifications of old procedures continue to be recommended. This DVD demonstrates the transvaginal excision of a diverticulum, which included a urethral stone, with a technique of overlapping the supporting tissues and reconstructing the urethra. Full color with animation.
