Optical Internal Urethrotomy Surgery – Precision Endoscopic Treatment for Urethral Strictures

Overview of Optical Internal Urethrotomy (OIU / DVIU)

Optical Internal Urethrotomy, also known as DVIU, is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat urethral stricture. It involves cutting the narrowed segment of the urethra under direct vision. This procedure helps restore normal urine flow.

Endoscopic Incision Technique for Urethral Stricture Treatment

OIU is performed under spinal or general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. A urethrotome is inserted through the urethra to reach the narrowed segment. The stricture is clearly visualized using an endoscopic camera system. A cold knife or laser is used to make a precise incision at the stricture site. This incision widens the urethral passage to improve urine flow. A catheter is usually placed temporarily to support healing after the procedure.

Clinical Indications for OIU / DVIU Procedure

• To treat short-segment urethral strictures
• To relieve weak urine stream and urinary obstruction
• To manage recurrent urinary retention
• To improve bladder emptying caused by urethral narrowing
