RUSCH® Filiforms and Followers
Your solution for a number of urethral procedures

urethral dilation
Urethral dilation may be needed for a number ofreasons including false passages, urethral trauma,
strictures, enlarged prostate, or previous surgeries.
Filiforms and Followers can be used to negotiate thecompromised urethra and eliminate the need for moreinvasive procedures such as cystoscopy and suprapubic
access when access to the bladder is necessary.
Filiforms
Filiforms are smaller than urethral catheters andmore easily passed through a compromised urethra.
Followers are then used to dilate the urethra to a size
suitable for passage of a urethral catheter whenneeded. Filiforms and Followers are also used in thetreatment of urethral stricture disease and postoperative therapy. In these cases, placement of acatheter is not always required. Chronic strictures canbe managed with repeat dilations.
