Abstract:
Intraprostatic stents appeared as an alternative to surgery in high surgical risk obstructed patients. A critical review of the different types of endoprostatic prostheses is made. Finally we tried to establish the true cost/effectiveness ratio in our country, comparing the temporary prostheses with the indwelling catheter and the permanent prostheses with prostatic surgery.
