Supra public catheter
Posted: Tue Jan 24, 2017 6:56 am
Am headed for robotic RP on March 1st and have been doing lots of research. (FrankTalk being by far the most helpful.)
Has anyone had the supra pubic catheter instead of the penile catheter? Any complications? Any advice on the decision? My surgeon said he has done many, and would do the same for me, but I never really got any info on the implications other than the elimination of six days of hell. -- I had a catheter for one night after my biopsy, and can't imagine 6 days like that. Anyone?
