Dittel Dilating Bougies cvd 30 Fr. 34.5cm

Clinical Application

Curved dilating bougies are used primarily in urology for urethral calibration, dilation of strictures, and facilitation of catheter exchange. The Dittel curved bougie in 30 Fr provides a large-caliber option for adults when progressive dilation is required prior to definitive therapy or instrumentation. Its length is intended to reach the anterior and posterior urethra to allow tactile feedback when negotiating strictured segments and verifying patency.

Design & Configuration

The curved geometry follows the anatomic contour of the male urethra, allowing smoother passage past the bulbous and prostatic segments with reduced mucosal drag. The 34.5 cm working length provides sufficient reach for peri-prostatic and bladder-neck assessment while the graduated taper to the tip promotes gradual dilation. A rounded, atraumatic tip minimizes mucosal trauma during passage and helps reduce false passages when used with appropriate technique.
