At Liv Hospital Ulus, Optical Urethrotomy is performed using specialized endoscopic techniques and comprehensive assessment of urethral narrowing. Established in 2013, this JCI accredited hospital in Istanbul, Turkey has 154 beds and offers advanced urology, endourology, reconstructive procedures, and urinary tract care.

Optical Urethrotomy may be considered for appropriately selected patients with short or suitable urethral strictures causing symptoms such as reduced urine flow, difficulty urinating, or incomplete bladder emptying. Before treatment, the urologist may perform urine testing, uroflowmetry, urethroscopy, retrograde urethrography, or other investigations to determine the location and extent of the stricture. During the procedure, the scarred area is carefully incised under direct endoscopic visualization.
