Summary The use of the Turner‐Warwick scrotal inlay urethroplasty has been reviewed in 37 cases, of whom 25 have been completed with closure of their urethroplasties. The patients have been delighted with their micturition even during the review stage but slight post‐micturition dribbling and impaired ejaculation have been reported in a few cases. The use of fine Dexon absorbable sutures throughout all stages of the urethroplasty has been recommended. I wish to express my gratitude to Richard Turner‐Warwick for initiating me into this technique of scrotal inlay urethroplasty.
