Guyon Urethral Bougies 29 Fr.

Clinical Application

Used to assess and establish urethral lumen caliber, guide catheter placement, and perform graduated dilation during urologic procedures. Primarily applied in adult urethral calibration, management of urethral strictures, and intraoperative guidance when introducing catheters, dilators, or endoscopic instruments. It is suitable for use in outpatient urology clinics, ambulatory surgery centers, and hospital operating rooms.

Design & Configuration

The Guyon pattern provides a smooth, tapered profile that eases atraumatic passage through the urethra while allowing tactile feedback to the operator. A rounded, atraumatic tip minimizes mucosal trauma and reduces the risk of false passages. The single-piece configuration gives predictable shaft stiffness for negotiating the male urethral curvature and transmitting controlled force during calibration and dilation maneuvers. The 29 Fr size represents a large-bore option for procedures requiring wider lumen confirmation or dilation.
