Prosthetic Surgery in Urology

Abstract

This chapter gives an overview of the different types of catheter available for bladder drainage, with details of their composition, size and style. We include technical tips on the insertion and the recognition and management of catheter complications, with an emphasis on catheter associated urinary tract infections and antibiotic stewardship. A description of the different types and indications for surgical drains is also provided, and a comprehensive overview of the types of stoma used in urological practice, including continent catheterisable channels (Mitrofanoff and Yang-Monti), ileal conduit, double-barrelled wet colostomy, vesicostomy and ureterostomy.
