A urethral prosthesis (9) with prostatic and bulbar segments connected by two types of ties allows the prosthesis to assume at, least two configurations different with inter-segmental distances adapted to situations where the patient either has or does not have normal control of the external sphincter. This is particularly useful for a patient undergoing an anesthetic procedure that affects the external sphincter muscles. When the muscles are anesthetized, the prosthesis (9) may provide constant urine voiding, and when the anesthetic effects wear off, the prosthesis may assume a different configuration to allow the sphincter to reassert control over urinary voiding.

L'invention concerne une prothèse urétrale présentant des segments prostatiques et bulbaires reliés par deux types de liens. La prothèse urétrale peut présenter au moins deux configurations différentes dont les distances entre les segments sont adaptées à des situations où le patient maîtrise ou ne maîtrise pas le contrôle normal du sphincter extérieur. Cette prothèse est particulièrement utile pour un patient qui subit une anesthésie affectant les muscles sphincter extérieurs. La prothèse assure une miction constante lorsque les muscles sont anesthésiés; et quand l'effet de l'anesthésie a disparu, la prothèse présente une configuration différente qui permet au sphincter de reprendre le contrôle de la miction.
