Zusammenfassung:A method of and an apparatus for guiding a prosthesis utilizing a flexible sheath in combination with a guide member is taught. Basket forceps assembly which is known in the art is utilized to fracture a calculus located within a coeloma is coupled to the guide member. The guide member carrying the basket is inserted into the coeloma so as to allow it to move past a restriction within the coeloma and without injuring the walls of the coeloma.
