University Hospital is a trusted healthcare provider for Optical Urethrotomy, offering minimally invasive treatment for urethral strictures supported by experienced urologists, endourologists, reconstructive surgeons, anesthesiologists, and multidisciplinary urinary care teams. Established in 1842, the SAC accredited hospital is situated in Basel, Switzerland and has 773 beds.

Optical Urethrotomy works by opening the narrowed urethral segment with a controlled incision, allowing urine to pass more freely. The procedure is performed through the natural urinary passage and does not generally require an external surgical incision. Depending on the patient's anatomy and clinical circumstances, a cold-knife urethrotome or suitable laser technology may be used to divide the scar tissue.
