Urethral dilatation is a procedure for urethral stricture disease.
Urethral strictures are narrowings in the urethra secondary to long standing STDs, prior surgery or urethral trauma. Unlike dilation, the urethra is not stretched open and resultant scarring is less. If stricture return after direct telescopic vision incision it has been recommended to proceed with open surgical repair of the urethral narrowing. We can also arrange local accommodations through this number if this is your need. Please bring any physicians notes and lab test results that you may be able to obtain.
