Treatment of Urethral Stricture in Female Patients

Clinical Scenario

This protocol addresses urethral stricture occurring in female patients (FUS) — a distinct clinical entity that requires a specific management pathway. Initial procedural intervention is followed by a structured maintenance plan to reduce recurrence.

Treatment Approach

Management involves urethral dilatation as the primary procedural intervention, with a planned self-dilatation programme introduced to sustain patency — though the complete sequence, procedural parameters, and follow-up algorithm are contained in the full protocol.

Full regimen details and clinical decision pathway available below.

Perform urethral dilatation to 24-41 Fr as initial treatment of female urethral stricture (FUS).

Perform repeat urethral dilatation and start planned weekly intermittent self-dilatation (ISD) with a 16-18 Fr catheter for the 1st recurrence of FUS, or plan repeat dilation.
