Bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (B-TURP) is a recent technique in our urological practice. The aim of this study was to evaluate our preliminary results on the use of a B-TURP in Kolda (Senegal) in a benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Materials and Methods: This was a 15-month, retrospective and descriptive study from June 2021 to August 31, 2022. It examined the records of patients who had BPH requiring surgical treatment and who received Bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (B-TURP) during the study period at the Kolda Regional Hospital in Senegal. We used a Karl STORZ bipolar endoscopy column with a 26 sheath and 30˚ optics. The parameters studied were the civil status of the patients, the clinical and para-clinical data as well as the operative indications. The data were entered and analyzed using Epi-info 3.5.1.1. Results: A total of 31 patients underwent bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate during the study period. The mean age of patients was 68.5 ± 12.6 years (range, 56 - 77 years). The mean total PSA was 4 ± 2.3 ng/ml (range, 0.5 - 11 ng/ml). The mean prostate size assessed by ultrasound was 54 ± 12.3 ml (range, 30 - 90 ml). The operative indication was dominated by BPH with impact on the upper urinary tract. The mean of bladder irrigation time was 21.4 ± 3.9 hours (range, 12 - 26 hours). In the immediate post-operative period, blood transfusions were performed in 2 patients (6.5%). In the medium-term follow-up, we noted one 1 (3.2%) case of urine retention requiring bladder catheterization. Conclusion: Bipolar Transurethral resection of the prostate B-TURP in saline system is efficacious and safe. The results of this preliminary study of B-TURP are satisfactory with a low complication rate. B-TURP decreases the duration of the hospitalization and the port of the probe. Our perspectives are oriented towards endoscopy of the upper urinary tract.展开更多

Transurethra...Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is highly prevalent among older men, impacting on their quality of life, sexual function, and genitourinary health, and has become an important global burden of disease. Transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate (TUPKP) is one of the foremost surgical procedures for the treatment of BPH. It has become well established in clinical practice with good efficacy and safety. In 2018, we issued the guideline “2018 Standard Edition”. However much new direct evidence has now emerged and this may change some of previous recommendations. The time is ripe to develop new evidence-based guidelines, so we formed a working group of clinical experts and methodologists. The steering group members posed 31 questions relevant to the management of TUPKP for BPH covering the following areas: questions relevant to the perioperative period (preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative) of TUPKP in the treatment of BPH, postoperative complications and the level of surgeons’ surgical skill. We searched the literature for direct evidence on the management of TUPKP for BPH, and assessed its certainty generated recommendations using the grade criteria by the European Association of Urology. Recommendations were either strong or weak, or in the form of an ungraded consensus-based statement. Finally, we issued 36 statements. Among them, 23 carried strong recommendations, and 13 carried weak recommendations for the stated procedure. They covered questions relevant to the aforementioned three areas. The preoperative period for TUPKP in the treatment of BPH included indications and contraindications for TUPKP, precautions for preoperative preparation in patients with renal impairment and urinary tract infection due to urinary retention, and preoperative prophylactic use of antibiotics. Questions relevant to the intraoperative period incorporated surgical operation techniques and prevention and management of bladder explosion. The application to different populations incorporating the efficacy and safety of TUPKP in the treatment of normal volume (< 80 ml) and large-volume (≥ 80 ml) BPH compared with transurethral urethral resection prostate, transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate and open prostatectomy;the efficacy and safety of TUPKP in high-risk populations and among people taking anticoagulant (antithrombotic) drugs. Questions relevant to the postoperative period incorporated the time and speed of flushing, the time indwelling catheters are needed, principles of postoperative therapeutic use of antibiotics, follow-up time and follow-up content. Questions related to complications incorporated types of complications and their incidence, postoperative leukocyturia, the treatment measures for the perforation and extravasation of the capsule, transurethral resection syndrome, postoperative bleeding, urinary catheter blockage, bladder spasm, overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, urethral stricture, rectal injury during surgery, postoperative erectile dysfunction and retrograde ejaculation. Final questions were related to surgeons’ skills when performing TUPKP for the treatment of BPH. We hope these recommendations can help support healthcare workers caring for patients having TUPKP for the treatment of BPH.展开更多

Long-term follow-up of the clinical effect of bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (B-TURP) in saline for BPH is required. Objective: To compare, with long term follow-up, the efficacy and safety of B-TURP in the treatment of BPH with prostate gland volumes of 45 ml, and larger than 60 ml. Materials and Methods: From January 2006 to December 2016, 318 patients with a mean age of 69.45 ± 8.37 years and a median prostate volume of 42 cm3 (56.51 - 32.47) were treated with B-TURP by single urologist (SP) at the Division of Urology, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University. We retrospectively analyzed the perioperative status of patients’ status follow-up for at least 6 months and up to 5 years. Post-void residual (PVR) and maximum flow rate (Qmax) were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively. Operative time, length of catheterization and hospitalization and complications were all reported. Results: The main indication for B-TURP was failure of medication (81.13%). Perioperative results showed no statistical significance among the groups in terms of catheterization days and the hospitalization length. During the follow-up, the improvement of postoperative parameters was compared with preoperative subscales, at different periods from baseline and after 24, 36, 48, and 60 months post treatment. PSA, Q max, PVR, and average flow rate were significantly different from pre-operation data (p Conclusion: With long-term follow-up, B-TURP is a safe and effective technique for BPH management with prostate gland 45 ml and larger than 60 ml.展开更多

This study aimed to evaluate the results of bipolar transurethral prostate resection in a single urology center in Cameroon. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study carried out over two years (2015-2017) involving 112 patients with symptomatic prostate diseases who underwent transurethral prostate resection with the help of a bipolar Olympus generator. Results: The ages of the participants ranged from 44 years to 85 years, with a mean age of 64.41 ± 9.5 years. Fifty-six (50%) patients presented with only obstructive symptoms, five (4.46%) had only irritative symptoms, twenty (17.86%) presented with both obstructive and irritative symptoms, eight (7.14%) presented with macroscopic hematuria, seven (6.25%) with urinary tract infections, and sixteen (14.29%) with acute urinary retention. Digital rectal examination was unremarkable in 74 (66.07%) findings and was positive in 38 (33.93%) patients. The median prostate diameter was 70 [59 - 86.5] mm. The mean preoperative IPSS was 24.46 ± 5.68. The mean surgery duration was 77.61 ± 23.87 minutes. The mean volume of irrigation fluid used during surgery was 24.84 ± 6.40 ml. The differences between the preoperative and postoperative mean IPPS score, maximum urine flow rate, and quality of life were statistically significant (all P Conclusion: Bipolar transurethral prostate resection is a viable alternative to open surgery or laparoscopic surgery for large prostate glands. This technique is also associated with a reduction in prostate-related morbidity.展开更多

We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data of BPH patients who received PK-TURP. A total of 1126 BPH patients were divided into AUR (n = 348) and non-AUR groups (n = 778). After the urethral catheters were removed, the urine white blood cell (WBC) count in the AUR group significantly increased compared with the non-AUR group (P〈 0.01). However, there was no significant difference in international prostate symptom score, painful urination, and maximal urinary flow rate. The duration of hospitalization of the AUR group was longer than that of the non-AUR group (P 〈 0.001). A total of 87.1% (303/348) patients in the AUR group and 84.1% (654/778) patients in the non-AUR group completed all of the postoperative follow-up visits. The incidence of urinary tract infection in the AUR group within 3 months after surgery was significantly higher than that in the non-AUR group (P 〈 0.01). The incidence of temporary urinary incontinence in the AUR group did not exhibit significant difference. During 3-12 months after surgery, there were no significant differences in major complications between the two groups. Multivariate regression analyses showed that age, postvoid residual, maximal urinary flow rate, diabetes, and hypertension, but not the presence of AUR, were independent predictors of IPSS post-PK-TURP. In conclusion, immediate PK-TURP surgery on patients accompanied by AUR was safe and effective.展开更多

We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library. The pooled estimates of maximum flow rate, International Prostate Symptom Score, operation time, catheterization time, irrigated volume, hospital stay, transurethral resection syndrome, transfusion, clot retention, urinary retention and urinary stricture were assessed. There was no notable difference in International Prostate Symptom Score between TURP and PKRP groups during the 1-month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months follow-up period, while the pooled Qmax at 1-month favored PKRP group. PKRP group was related to a lower risk rate of transurethral resection syndrome, transfusion and clot retention, and the catheterization time and operation time were also shorter than that of TURP. The irrigated volume, length of hospital stay, urinary retention and urinary stricture rate were similar between groups. In conclusion, our study suggests that the PKRP is a reliable minimal invasive technique and may anticipatoriiy prove to be an alternative electrosurgical procedure for the treatment of BPH.展开更多

文摘In the present study, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of immediate surgical bipolar plasmakinetic transurethral resection of the prostate (PK-TURP) for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with acute urinary retention (AUR). We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data of BPH patients who received PK-TURP. A total of 1126 BPH patients were divided into AUR (n = 348) and non-AUR groups (n = 778). After the urethral catheters were removed, the urine white blood cell (WBC) count in the AUR group significantly increased compared with the non-AUR group (P〈 0.01). However, there was no significant difference in international prostate symptom score, painful urination, and maximal urinary flow rate. The duration of hospitalization of the AUR group was longer than that of the non-AUR group (P 〈 0.001). A total of 87.1% (303/348) patients in the AUR group and 84.1% (654/778) patients in the non-AUR group completed all of the postoperative follow-up visits. The incidence of urinary tract infection in the AUR group within 3 months after surgery was significantly higher than that in the non-AUR group (P 〈 0.01). The incidence of temporary urinary incontinence in the AUR group did not exhibit significant difference. During 3-12 months after surgery, there were no significant differences in major complications between the two groups. Multivariate regression analyses showed that age, postvoid residual, maximal urinary flow rate, diabetes, and hypertension, but not the presence of AUR, were independent predictors of IPSS post-PK-TURP. In conclusion, immediate PK-TURP surgery on patients accompanied by AUR was safe and effective.
文摘Objective:Urethral stricture disease after endo-urological treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)is a sparsely described complication.We describe management of five categories of these strictures in this retrospective observational case series.Methods:One hundred and twenty-one patients presenting with symptoms of bladder outflow obstruction after endo-urological intervention for BPH from February 2016 to March 2019 were evaluated.Among them,76 were eligible for this study and underwent reconstructive surgery.Preoperative and postoperative assessments were done with symptom scores,uroflowmetry,ultrasound for post-void residue,and urethrogram.Any intervention during follow-up was classed as a failure.The recurrence and 95%confidence interval for recurrence percentage were calculated.Results:The following five categories of patients were identified:Bulbo-membranous(33[43.4%]),navicular fossa(21[27.6%]),penile/peno-bulbar(8[10.5%]),bladder neck stenosis(6[7.9%]),and multiple locations(8[10.5%]).The average age was 69 years(range:60-84 years).Overall average symptom score,flow rate,and post-void residue changed from 21 to 7,6 mL/s to 19 mL/s,and 210 mL to 20 mL,respectively.The average follow-up was 34 months(range:12-58 months).Overall recurrence and complication rates were 10.5%and 9.2%,respectively.The recurrence in each category was seen in 3,1,2,1,and 1 patient,respectively.Overall 95% confidence interval for recurrence percentage was 4.66-19.69.Conclusion:Urethral stricture disease is a major long-term complication of endo-urological treatment of BPH.The bulbo-membranous strictures need continence preserving approach.Navicular fossa strictures require minimally invasive and cosmetic consideration.Peno-bulbar strictures require judicious use of grafts and flaps.Bladder neck stenosis in this cohort could be treated with endoscopic measures.Multiple locations need treatment based on their sites in single-stage as far as possible.
文摘目的探讨经尿道前列腺等离子双极电切术(transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate,TUPKP)治疗高危良性前列腺增生(BPH)患者的临床疗效。方法采用前瞻性多中心研究设计。在全国20家医院泌尿外科按照纳入排除标准,入组行TUPKP治疗的高危BPH患者,分析患者基线、围手术期及术后3个月随访的相关数据,评价疗效和安全性。结果2016年9月至2018年12月共入组229名高危BPH患者。与基线相比,术后3个月随访的国际前列腺症状评分改变量为-17.28[95%CI(-18.02,-16.54)]分、最大尿流率改变量为5.61[95%CI(0.68,10.54)]mL·s^(-1)、残余尿量改变量为-84.50[95%CI(-96.49,-72.51)]mL、生活质量评分改变量为-3.24[95%CI(-3.42,-3.06)]分,差异均具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。术中及术后并发症的发生率低,未发生与手术相关的不良事件。结论TUPKP可以用于治疗高危BPH患者,建议由技术熟练的术者实施手术。
文摘To evaluate the efficacy and safety of plasmakinetic resection of the prostate (PKRP) versus transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for the treatment of patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was carried out. We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library. The pooled estimates of maximum flow rate, International Prostate Symptom Score, operation time, catheterization time, irrigated volume, hospital stay, transurethral resection syndrome, transfusion, clot retention, urinary retention and urinary stricture were assessed. There was no notable difference in International Prostate Symptom Score between TURP and PKRP groups during the 1-month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months follow-up period, while the pooled Qmax at 1-month favored PKRP group. PKRP group was related to a lower risk rate of transurethral resection syndrome, transfusion and clot retention, and the catheterization time and operation time were also shorter than that of TURP. The irrigated volume, length of hospital stay, urinary retention and urinary stricture rate were similar between groups. In conclusion, our study suggests that the PKRP is a reliable minimal invasive technique and may anticipatoriiy prove to be an alternative electrosurgical procedure for the treatment of BPH.
文摘Background Transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) has been considered as the standard treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). However, issues that have not yet been overcome for TURP include bleeding and absorption of irrigation fluid. Thus, novel improvement of the surgery is necessary. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bipolar plasma vaporization of the prostate (BPVP) with "button-type" electrode against standard TURP for BPH.
