[The use of a urethral catheter with an ultrasound-induced biopolymer drug coating for the prevention of recurrent bladder neck sclerosis in patients after endoscopic treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia].

ABSTRACT

Recurrent bladder neck sclerosis is one of the common complications of endoscopic treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia, which often leads to multiple re-operations, including complex open and laparoscopic reconstructive procedures. One of the most promising minimally invasive methods for preventing recurrence of bladder neck sclerosis is balloon dilatation under transrectal ultrasound guidance. To improve the results of using this technique, a urethral catheter with a biopolymer coating, capable of depositing a drug and eluting it under the influence of diagnostic ultrasound, was proposed.
