This month, Healthscope’s Sydney Southwest Private Hospital (SSWPH) treated a patient with recurrent anterior urethral stricture disease with a novel medical device, the Optilume® Urethral Drug Coated Balloon. The procedure performed by Urologist, Dr. Kayvan Haghighi is expected to have a
significant impact for the treatment of anterior urethral stricture disease, offering an alternative, minimally invasive treatment option that traditionally would need frequent selfmanagement, endoscopic retreatment or require open surgery.
