Catheter-associated complications are common, expensive, and often preventable by reducing unnecessary catheter usage. These complications range from most common nosocomial infection to uncommon conditions such as urethral diverticula and ischemic necrosis of the penis. Often, removal of a single known essential cause may be sufficient to prevent a disease. This review raises issues associated with urinary catheterization and emphasizes on the need of preventive measures a physician should take to reduce disappointing situations. The main objective of this literature review is to intercept or oppose unwanted catheter use and thereby, the disease processes associated with urinary catheterization. There is well-described literature available on catheter-associated urinary tract infection, but little is known about noninfectious complications resulting from catheter use; therefore, we also tried to draw attention on these unusual complications.
导管相关并发症很常见，费用高昂，且通常可通过减少不必要的导管使用来预防。这些并发症范围从最常见的医院感染到诸如尿道憩室和阴茎缺血性坏死等罕见病症。通常，消除一个已知的单一根本原因可能足以预防疾病。本综述提出了与导尿相关的问题，并强调了医生应采取预防措施以减少令人失望情况的必要性。这篇文献综述的主要目的是拦截或反对不必要的导管使用，从而避免与导尿相关的疾病过程。关于导管相关尿路感染已有详尽的文献记载，但对于导管使用导致的非感染性并发症却知之甚少；因此，我们也试图提请人们关注这些不常见的并发症。
