Dittel Dilating Bougies cvd 11 Fr. 34.5cm

Clinical Application

This curved dilating bougie is intended for progressive dilation of narrow or stenotic luminal passages and for establishing a safe conduit to advance catheters, tubes or endoscopes across resistant segments. Its curved geometry aids in negotiating angulated anatomy and maintaining the intended trajectory when traversing strictures, helping clinicians achieve serial dilation with tactile feedback while minimizing false passages.

Design & Configuration

The curved (cvd) profile is designed to follow natural anatomical contours, which can reduce mucosal shear and improve control when negotiating bends or obstructions. At 34.5 cm length, the instrument provides extended reach for working beyond proximal segments without sacrificing handling. The 11 Fr diameter gives a defined outer size for selecting subsequent dilation steps or compatible tubes; using a bougie of this caliber can simplify staged dilation strategies and tube exchanges.
