We are proud to announce that Consultant Urologist Mr. Sonpreet Rai and his team are the first the region to treat patients using Optilume, an innovative solution for urethral strictures. “This condition is common in men and can be difficult to treat due to pain and discomfort. Optilume significantly reduces the risk of recurrence, with a 25-27% recurrence rate at five years, compared to over 90% with standard dilatation, offering patients a much-needed minimally invasive option.” Optilume combines balloon dilation with a drug-coated delivery system to prevent scar tissue regrowth, improving long-term outcomes and enhancing patient quality of life.
