  • Patent number: 12268411
    Abstract: A method for expanding a constricted location of a urethra of a subject, the method including inserting a urethral implant, and an implant sheath that covers the urethral implant, through the urethra for implanting the urethral implant in the constricted location, the urethral implant being in a compressed configuration within the implant sheath, releasing the urethral implant from the implant sheath until the urethral implant exits from the implant sheath, thereby expanding the urethral implant from the compressed configuration to an expanded configuration, applying, by the urethral implant, continuous pressure on tissues of the urethra at the constricted location, and retracting the implant sheath from the urethra.

  • Patent number: 8603187
    Abstract: Device for removing prostate tissue from within the urethra, the device including a plurality of arms, and an actuating mechanism coupled to the arms, the arms being rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the urethra, the arms being divided into arm pairs, each of the arm pair being apart from each other in a first configuration and attempting to get closer to each other, in a second configuration, wherein the device is inserted in the urethra toward the prostate, in the first configuration, and wherein after the device is placed adjacent to the prostate, within the urethra, the actuating mechanism moves the arms to the second configuration, thereby pinching the prostate through the urethra.
