Foley catheter
or haematuria catheter or urinary catheter:
"A hematuria (or haematuria) catheter is a type of Foley catheter used for Post-TURP ... the catheter to flush out clots or other matter that does not drain. ..."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinary_catheterization
The Foley catheter is normally indwelling, and it sounds from the context as though this may be the case.

Info
Bei der TransUrethralen Resektion wird, wie Du richtig bemerktest, auch die Harnröhre teilweise reseziert. Deshalb erhält man anschließend einen Rundspülkatheter, um den dann die Harnröhre wieder nachwächst.

During surgery, a Foley catheter is placed in your bladder to drain the urine. After surgery, your urine may be bloody and there may be some clots in it. Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) may be needed to clear your urine if you have a lot of clots. With CBI, a special Foley catheter is used to irrigate or flush the bladder continuously while your urine and the CBI fluid empty into a drainage bag. If you are not able to urinate on your own after the Foley catheter has been removed, you may need to go home with your catheter.
