Meta Oelze-Rheinboldt (Arch. F. Derm. U. Syph. Bd. 155, 1928) regrets that new textbooks have given little attention to female urethral strictures, while she observes that they are relatively common. In cases with frequent urge to urinate, it is necessary to think about strictures. Along with the study with bougie, capitate probes, urethrocystoscopy is necessary. In girls and girls who did not have a history of gonorrhea, strictures can occur due to nervous irritations. The author recommends treatment with an endoscope, careful and prolonged dilatation, and better in combination with diathermy.
