Urology surgical procedure: Urethral Calibration (Urethral Stricture Diagnosis and Treatment)

Urethral calibration is a short, outpatient procedure that is designed to diagnose and treat urethral strictures. The procedure is usually painless and takes 10-15 minutes.

A narrowed urethra can cause various problems such as:

Difficulty urinating
Causing recurrent inflammation of the lower urinary tract
Weak urine stream
Frequent urination
Urinary incontinence
Pain when urinating

How does the procedure work?
It is performed in the supine position, after disinfection of the urethra and application of numbing gel. A thin calibration probe is inserted into the urethra and gradually dilated to widen the narrowed portion.

After the procedure, it is common to experience mild burning and irritation of the urethra, which subsides within a few days.

After years of extremely bad experience with doctors for children in Prague - this clinic and our new doctor Ms MUDr. Agnieszka Podstolská is just a paradise. Very professional and kind approach, fast service, good communication in cz or English (!), willingness to help which seems to be hard to find elsewhere. Very clean and pleasant environment compared with places “for free” elsewhere where you find stinky packed little waiting rooms with rude staff, especially old school nurses who hate you for being a foreigner. Thank you all for being there for us every time needed!
