What is Laser DVIU?
Direct Visual Internal Urethrotomy (DVIU) is an endoscopic procedure in which a laser or cold knife is used to cut the narrowed segment of the urethra. Unlike traditional surgery, no external incision is required, making it safer and less painful.
How Laser DVIU Treatment Works
Laser DVIU treatment in Jaipur is performed using advanced endoscopic techniques. During the procedure:
- Anesthesia is administered for comfort
- A urethroscope is inserted into the urethra
- The exact location of the stricture is identified
- A laser is used to make precise cuts
- The urethra widens, improving urine flow
- A temporary catheter is placed for healing
