    Abstract:
    Report on our experience with Fabian's prothesis as alternative therapy to benign prostate hyperplasia (B.P.H.) surgery. Throughout 1990 ten patients with various surgical contraindications were implanted the above device. In spite of the series small size (10 patients) and short follow-up (4 to 11 months), we believe the 70% good results obtained is very encouraging and can either be of help to banish the ominous indwelling vesical catheter, a permanent evidence of Urologists' failure in the prostate obstructive disease, or it will allow us to relief patients with B.P.H. non-secondary to other more aggressive therapies.
