ABSTRACT = {Male urethral stricture disease is one of the common 
conditions encountered in the day-to-day urological 
practice. It can present at any age and has a wide range 
of etiological factors including infection, trauma and 
instrumentation. It usually manifests itself as lower 
urinary tract symptoms or urinary tract infections with 
signifi cant impairment in the quality of life. There are 
several treatment options for this condition and these 
mainly depend on the site, length, the underlying cause 
and previous treatment. The management of bulbar 
urethral strictures has greatly evolved over the last few 
decades with more patients being offered reconstructive 
surgical operations as a primary treatment option. This 
article provides an overview on the management of 
bulbar urethral strictures and the wide range of surgical 
procedures offered to the patients.},
