Comprehensive Information on Urethral Stricture
Treatment by Dr. Soumyan Dey in Navi Mumbai
Introduction Urethral stricture is a condition
characterized by the narrowing of the urethra,
the tube responsible for carrying urine out of
the body. Dr. Soumyan Dey, a urologist in Navi
Mumbai, provides comprehensive treatment options
for urethral strictures, focusing on effective
and definitive solutions. Understanding
Urethral Stricture

• Urethral strictures typically exceed one
  centimeter in length, leading to urinary flow
  obstruction and the development of Lower Urinary
  Tract Symptoms (LUTS). While temporary measures
  like
• endoscopic treatments may be employed, they often
  result in high failure rates, necessitating long-
  term self-catheterization. Dr. Dey emphasizes
  urethroplasty as the best and definitive
  treatment, boasting success rates of around 98,
  without the need for post-operative
  self-catheterization.
• Symptoms, Causes, and Diagnosis
• Identifying urethral stricture symptoms,
  including poor urine stream, straining, and
  recurrent infections, is crucial. Diagnosis
  involves clinical examinations, urinalysis,
  uroflowmetry,
• ultrasonography, and imaging studies such as
  retrograde urethrogram (RGU) and micturating
• cystourethrogram (MCU). Causes range from
  inflammatory and traumatic to infectious,
  including sexually transmitted infections and
  radiation to pelvic organs.
• Treatment Options
• For immediate relief in cases of urine retention,
  catheterization is the initial step. Definitive
  treatments offered by Dr. Dey include
• Endoscopic Urethrotomy (VIU/OIU)
• Visual Internal Urethrotomy involves using an
  endoscope to visualize and cut scar tissue at the
  stricture site. While effective for small, soft
  strictures, it often results in high failure
  rates and requires frequent long-term
  self-calibration.
• End-to-End Anastomotic Urethroplasty

Visual Internal Urethrotomy (VIU) is an effective
surgical procedure for repairing urethral
strictures. While offering a minimally-invasive
option, patients may require repeated VIU
surgeries, followed by intermittent
self-dilatation (ISD) for optimal results.
Cystoscopy with VIU, a diagnostic and treatment
procedure, allows visualization of the bladder
and urethra, with the option to remove tumors
or collect tissue samples for further
testing. Conclusion Dr. Soumyan Dey's approach
to urethral stricture treatment in Navi Mumbai
combines a thorough understanding of symptoms,
causes, and diagnostic methods with a range of
effective and definitive treatment options,
ensuring the best possible outcomes for
patients. Contact Us Map Location
