Resumen
SAIZ CARRERO, Ataúlfo. Flashes históricos sobre el prostatismo y la retención de orina. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2005, vol.58, n.2, pp.95-108. ISSN 0004-0614.
OBJECTIVES: To perform a chronological search about symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction of prostatic origin and some of its treatments. METHODS/RESULTS: Over the years we have been collecting data about the topic from books and journals; we present them in such a way that they can be consulted chronologically. From more than 100 references we have selected the 60 most relevant to our judgment. CONCLUSIONS: Many ideas about the syndrome and the way to solve it have arisen, which vary from one time to another. For most urologists, the main operative complication has always been bleeding, leading to the development of a great number of techniques to avoid it. Infection, the other great complication, prompted that initially surgical maneuvers were performed very fastly and with the small incisions. In addition, big drainages were necessary.
