Urologic stents that are adapted for temporary use to provide relief following treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia and other disorders of the prostate, urethra and ureters.

A prosthesis comprising a water-dissolvable coating. A prosthesis for a lacrimal canaliculus comprising a swellable punctal plug with a proximal end and a distal end, with the plug comprising a water-dissolvable biocompatible coating on the distal and/or the proximal end. Materials and methods for making and using the same. A prosthesis for placement in or across natural or prosthetic lumens, ostia, ducts, sinus, or sphincters, the prosthesis comprising a coating. The prosthesis can further provide a depot for sustained drug delivery to tissue.

A urethral implant delivery system includes an overtube, a camera, a urethral implant and a guidewire. The overtube includes a first elongated passage, a second elongated passage and a handle connector. The camera is located at the distal end of the first elongated passage. The urethral implant is located within the second elongated passage. The guidewire is coupled with the urethral implant and extends toward the proximal end of the overtube. The handle connector is configured to be coupled with a handle.

Extra-urethral implants and methods of use are disclosed. Implants can treat disorders or diseases of the prostate by, for example, enlarging the lumen of the prostatic urethra.

A penile construction template may include an adhesive film configured for adhesion to donor skin. The penile construction template may include a first section defined on the adhesive film to identify an external phallus skin flap of the donor skin to be extracted while the adhesive film is adhered to the donor skin, and a second section defined on the adhesive film to identify a de-epithelialized skin flap of the donor skin to be extracted while the adhesive film is adhered to the donor skin. An implantable device for urethra construction may include a tubular scaffold configured to be coupled to a natal urethra of a patient, the tubular scaffold being seeded with urethral cells of the patient for growth of a urethral segment on the tubular scaffold therefrom while disposed within a body of the patient.

Extra-urethral implants and methods of use are disclosed. Implants can treat disorders or diseases of the prostate by, for example, enlarging the lumen of the prostatic urethra.

An implantable device for penile construction includes a tissue ingrowth cover. The tissue ingrowth cover may be disposed between a penile prosthesis and an interior wall of a neophallus, when the penile prosthesis is implanted within the neophallus.

Devices and methods are disclosed for managing and/or treating body tissues obstructing a hollow body lumen, such as the prostatic lobe tissues obstructing the urethra. A scaffolding may be provided with opposing tissue-engaging portions and at least one expansion member configured to transition between a compressed configuration having a reduced distance between the tissue-engaging portions and a deployed configuration having an increased distance between the tissue-engaging portions.

Devices and systems are disclosed for managing and/or treating body tissues obstructing a hollow body lumen, including the prostatic lobe tissues obstructing the urethra, for example conditions including benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) and associated lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). An implant is maintained in a constrained configuration within a distal portion of an elongated sheath so that is may be deployed by driving the implant with a pusher coaxially disposed within the sheath. An implant engaging element helps maintain control of the implant during deployment.

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to ureteral stents having an elongated stent body and one or more deformable bladders secured thereto, and methods of using the same.
