  • Patent number: 11938289
    Abstract: The present invention describes a method for performing a prostate surgical treatment, said method comprising: arranging a catheter 1 inside of a urethra of a patient and anchored against the bladder neck of the patient subsequent to the filling of the balloon stopper unit 5 with a fluid when the balloon stopper unit 5 is arranged inside of the bladder of a patient; said method also comprising injecting at least one anesthetic agent and adrenaline or injecting botulinum toxin (Botox) and/or penicillin to the prostate via the injection tube 9 and the hollow tip 10 at an intended position of the prostate. Moreover, the present invention also refers to a kit comprising a catheter 1 according to the present invention and one or more syringe(s) 1000 containing adrenaline and at least one anesthetic agent and/or at least a syringe 1000 or vial containing botulinum toxin (Botox) and/or penicillin.

  • Patent number: 8518016
    Abstract: 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 Once the indwelling catheter is positioned, the tool is disconnected and withdrawn from the urinary tract.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.

  • Patent number: 8475435
    Abstract: 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.
