Transmeatal OMG Ventral Inlay (Nikolavsky)
Described by Nikolavsky, the transmeatal ventral inlay technique places a buccal mucosal graft through the urethral meatus into the fossa navicularis without external glans incisions, using endoscopic assistance to position and suture the graft ventrally. This approach minimizes glans scarring and cosmetic disturbance while effectively augmenting the distal urethral lumen. It represents a minimally invasive alternative to open glanuloplasty for selected fossa navicularis strictures.
