A urethral stricture is an area of hardened tissu that narrows the urathra, sometimes making it difficult to urinate. Urinatal strictures can occur from scarring, trauma or infections. Strictures obstruct the flow of urine from the bladder, so the bladder must work harder to push the urine through the narrowed area. This is a mesh stent that holds the urethra open at the point of obstruction. It not only relieves the obstruction, it also mimimizes the recurrence of strictures. The UroloLume stent is placed through the urethra in an outpatient procedure.
