Question

which term means \surgical repair of the urethra\?
urethroplasty
nephroplasty
ureterolysis

Explanation:

• Urethroplasty: The suffix "-plasty" means surgical repair. The root "urethr-" refers to the urethra. So, urethroplasty is the surgical repair of the urethra.
• Nephroplasty: The root "nephr-" refers to the kidney. Nephroplasty is the surgical repair of the kidney, not the urethra.
• Ureterolysis: The suffix "-lysis" means separation or loosening. The root "ureter-" refers to the ureter. Ureterolysis is the separation of adhesions around the ureter, not related to urethra repair.

Answer:

urethroplasty
