Product Overview
Van Buren Urethral Sound is a precision urological instrument built for assessing lumen patency, relieving strictures, and dilating the male urethra during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Available in multiple variations, it features a gradually tapering cylindrical shaft with a pronounced J-shaped curve and a polished, blunt olivary tip that guides the instrument smoothly through narrow passages while providing surgeons with clear tactile feedback.
Key Features:
• German stainless steel body resists corrosion and withstands repeated autoclave cycles.
• Smooth, blunt tip navigates strictures safely to minimize urethral mucosal trauma.
• Anatomical J-shaped curve facilitates gentle guidance along the natural urethral pathway.
• Flat finger plate near the base delivers stable manual orientation and controlled advancement.
Uses & Applications:
• Dilates progressive urethral strictures to restore normal urinary outflow pathways.
• Calibrates lumen diameter prior to cystoscopy and endourological interventions.
• Assists in detecting and bypassing fibrous adhesions within the anterior and posterior urethra.
