Abstract Objective Historical review of the procedures and maneuvers described in the literature for the control of Santorini's venous plexus. Material and method Review of original articles on the design of procedures and maneuvers for the control of the Santorini's venous plexus. Results The control of Santorini's plexus is crucial to reduce blood loss and dissect the prostatic apex. The procedure was first performed by Chute in 1954 and has undergone subsequent modifications by several authors (Reiner and Walsh, Hayashi, Myers, etc.) who have published different maneuvers for its control. Conclusion There is no ideal procedure or maneuver for the control of the Santorini's plexus.
