The present invention describes a method for performing a prostate surgical treatment, said method comprising: Moreover, the present invention also refers to a kit comprising a catheteraccording to the present invention and one or more syringe(s)containing adrenaline and at least one anesthetic agent and/or at least a syringeor vial containing botulinum toxin (Botox) and/or penicillin.

Kit and method intended for prostate surgery

An indwelling catheter is positioned in a urinary tract to drain urine from the bladder to a position distally adjacent to a sphincter muscle. A balloon of the catheter is inflated through an inflation tube extending through the urinary tract. A coiled section of the inflation tube contacts the constriction caused by the sphincter muscle. The balloon and the coiled section resist movement of the indwelling catheter while still permitting natural urination. The indwelling catheter is inserted by an insertion tool which is separably connected to the catheter. Once the indwelling catheter is positioned, the tool is disconnected and withdrawn from the urinary tract. Risks of blood clots obstructing the flow of urine through the indwelling catheter immediately following a surgical procedure on the prostate gland are avoided by flushing fluid through the insertion tool and the catheter to clear an internal urine flow passageway in the catheter.

Method of using a partial-length, indwelling prostatic catheter having a coiled inflation tube as an anchor

A partial-length catheter, or an extendable tube or sleeve member of the catheter, is selectively movable within the prostatic urethra to open a urine drainage passageway through and obstructed portion of the prostatic urethra or to open the external urinary sphincter muscle and thereby discharge urine from the bladder. A control element is manipulated at a position exterior of the urinary canal to selectively move the catheter or the extendable tube or sleeve member, thereby selectively controlling urine discharge.

Partial-length indwelling urinary catheter permitting selective urine discharge

Partial-length, indwelling prostatic catheter using coiled inflation tube as an anchor and methods of draining urine and flushing clots

A partial-length catheter, or an extendable tube or sleeve member of the catheter, is selectively movable within the prostatic urethra to open a urine drainage passageway through and obstructed portion of the prostatic urethra or to open the external urinary sphincter muscle and thereby discharge urine from the bladder. A control element is manipulated at a position exterior of the urinary canal to selectively move the catheter or the extendable tube or sleeve member, thereby selectively controlling urine discharge. The catheter may also be used to diagnose urinary retention problems caused by a weak bladder or a prostatic obstruction.

Partial-length indwelling urinary catheter and method permitting selective urine discharge

A device for the drainage of the bladder through the body's own urethra opening outside of the human body, comprising a tube-shaped body (). The 5 tube-shaped body is comprised: to assume a first contracted position and for taken up within the bladder as well as a to assume a second partially extended position. At least one thread () extends between the bladder and an opening so that the tube-shaped body can be extended from the first position to the second position duringthe application of a pulling force upon the thread. The tube-shaped body will return to the first position upon the release of the pulling force on the thread.

Method and apparatus for self-draining of urine

A device for the drainage of the bladder through the body's own urethra opening outside of the human body, comprising a tube-shaped body (). The tube-shaped body is comprised: to assume a first contracted position and for taken up within the bladder as well as a to assume a second partially extended position. At least one thread () extends between the bladder and an opening of the urethra and is attached at a first end of the tube-shaped body so that the tube-shaped body can be extended from the first position to the second position during the application of a pulling force upon the thread. The tube-shaped body in the second partially extended position extends in such a manner so as to exceed the distance between the bladder and the point of the urethra's closing. The tube-shaped body is comprised in such a manner that it will return to the first position upon the release of the pulling force on the thread. The device is inserted into the bladder, in that a tube-shaped body is extended and inserted into an extended tube-shaped introducing member. The introducing member is inserted in through the urethra, so that the end piece of the tube-shaped body enters the bladder. The tube-shaped body is pushed out of the tube-shaped introducing member and into the bladder during the course of which it returns to the first contracted position completely within the bladder and in the course of which the placement of a thread that is attached to the tube-shaped body and that extends outside of the urethra is left to remain.

Method and apparatus for insertion of self-draining urine apparatus into bladder

A device for treatment of the prostate, comprising a catheter for treatment which is inserted through the urethra. The treatment catheter being provided with a front portion that comprises an expandable container for fixation of treatment catheter with a front portion in the urinary bladder and with a drainage channel ending in the front portion for drainage of urinary bladder. At least one hollow tip is provided to be extendible from treatment catheter into the surrounding prostate tissue of catheter. The tip is connected with a syringe for supply of an astringent and analgesic medicine. By this method, tip is extended from the treatment catheter into the surrounding prostate tissue of catheter. An astringent and analgesic medicine is supplied from the syringe and administered to the prostate tissue through the tip.
