OIU (Optical Internal Urethrotomy) 

What Is It?

Optical Internal Urethrotomy is a procedure to treat urethral strictures, a medical condition where the urethra becomes narrow. 

In What Way Does It Assist?

Surgery normalizes the urine flow and it returns back to normal. Following this surgery, the patients had no trouble urinating at all. There are no incisions or cuts made during this minimally invasive procedure, which uses a laser to normalize the stricture. 

How Is It Carried Out?

Actions to do: To confirm the stricture and subsequently ascertain its length and severity, diagnostic testing will be carried out. Urine discharge measurement, urine chemical property testing (for blood or bacteria traces), cystoscopy, and urethral measuring are among the first tests. Ultrasounds or X-rays are also used to assess the stricture clinically.
