Choosing Dexeus University Hospital for Optical Urethrotomy gives patients access to experienced endourologists, advanced urethroscopy and urinary imaging, modern incision and laser systems, specialized anesthesia services, and structured postoperative monitoring. Established in 1973, the JCI accredited hospital in Barcelona, Spain has 200 beds and provides specialized treatment for urethral strictures.

Optical Urethrotomy is generally performed under appropriate anaesthesia using an endoscopic instrument inserted through the urethra. The surgeon identifies the narrowed section and makes precise incisions through the scar tissue to restore the urethral opening. A urinary catheter is often placed temporarily after the procedure to support healing. Patients may experience temporary burning during urination, blood in the urine, urinary urgency, or discomfort, while potential complications include infection, bleeding, urinary retention, or recurrence of the stricture.
