Guyon Urethral Bougies 14 Fr.

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic passage through the urethra to establish or confirm urethral patency, this 14 Fr Guyon bougie is used for controlled dilation, calibration, and as an introducer for catheters or stents. It is commonly used during urology procedures where progressive dilation or precise sizing is required, and when a rigid guide is preferred to provide tactile feedback while traversing strictures or narrow segments.

Design & Configuration

The straight, slender shaft with a tapered, rounded tip facilitates smooth entry and minimizes mucosal trauma. A rigid metal profile gives the operator direct tactile feedback to sense resistance and passage through the urethral lumen, aiding safe, incremental dilation and reliable guidance of Foley catheters or other devices over the bougie. The polished finish reduces friction and improves ease of insertion when used with appropriate lubricants.
