Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
By ligating the dorsal vein and collateral vessels of the penis to delay venous return from the erectile tissue, the penile erection may be sustained. Implantation of a penile prosthesis also helps to maintain an erection.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
An indwelling ureteral stent is inserted when long-term drainage is required from diseases that cause ureteral obstruction. A stent may also be placed before abdominal surgery to mark the ureter. There are many different kinds of ureteral stents.
