Abstract
A statistical analysis of the postoperative complications of prostatectomy in 100 cases is presented. Significant differences in the times of convalescence were found according to the surgical modifications employed. The advantages of epidural anaesthesia are pointed out. Attention is drawn to the consequences of preoperative maintenance on catheter drainage.
