Urology Dilators, Sounds & Needles

Urethral dilators and sounds are smooth, curved metal rods used to dilate the urethra and treat urethral strictures, to locate the bladder neck, and to prepare for catheterization or cystoscopy. Urology needles pass sutures around deep pelvic structures in bladder neck suspension procedures. Grey Medical manufactures these instruments in surgical-grade stainless steel within our urology instruments range.
