title: [English and Spanish nomenclature of catheters and other urological instruments].
abstract: We analyze names given to urologic devices that are apparently similar in English and Spanish but with different meanings. The translation of the commonest terms for instruments and some problematic words are reviewed. Although some of the equivalents are a convention, it is interesting to know the more widely used nowadays.
