Allium's Bulbar Stent is designed specifically for the treatment of recurrent strictures along the bulbar urethra. They will be the new therapeutic tool in the hands of the urologist who is not an expert in urethral surgery but has a case-load of recurrent urethral stricture patients to be treated.
