Guyon Urethral Bougies 26 Fr.

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled urethral dilation and calibration, this Guyon-pattern bougie is used to establish or maintain urethral patency, negotiate short strictures, and facilitate safe passage of urinary catheters or endoscopes. It is suitable for use in urology procedures where a firm, atraumatic sounding instrument is required to size the urethral lumen or to provide a stable guide for subsequent instrumentation.

Design & Configuration

The instrument’s single-ended, tapered geometry provides progressive dilation with a smooth leading surface to reduce mucosal catching and patient discomfort. The clinically familiar Guyon pattern offers a balance of rigidity for tactile feedback and a smoothly contoured tip to minimize tissue trauma. The 26 Fr diameter positions this instrument for cases requiring larger-caliber dilation or calibration during operative and diagnostic urologic workflows.
