Methods： A retrospective analysis of 88 consecutive patients with symptomatic BPH was carried out, who underwent either 120-W ThuVEP or HoLEP nonrandomly. Patient demographics and peri-operative and 12-month follow-up data were analyzed with the International Prostate Symptom Score （IPSS）, quality of life （QoL） score, maximum flow rate （Qmax）, postvoid residual urine volume （PVR）＋ and rates of peri-operative and late complications. Results： The patients in each group showed no significant difference in preoperative parameters. Compared with the HoLEP group, patients in the 120-W ThuVEP group required significantly shorter time for laser enucleation （58.3 ± 12.8 min vs. 70.5 ± 22.3 min, P = 0.003）, and resulted in a significant superiority in laser efficiency （resected prostate weight/laser enucleation time） for 120-W Tm：YAG laser compared to holmium：YAG laser （0.69 ± 0.18 vs. 0.61 ± 0.19, P = 0.048）. During 1, 6, and 12 months of follow-ups, the procedures did not demonstrate a significant difference in IPSS, QoL score, Qmax, or PVR （P 〉 0.05）. Mean peri-operative decrease of hemoglobin in the HoLEP group was similar to the ThuVEP group （ 17.1 ± 12.0 g/L vs. 15.2± 10.1 g/L, P = 0.415）. Early and late incidences of complications were low and did not differ significantly between the two groups of 120-W ThuVEP and HoLEP patients （P 〉 0.05）. Conclusions： 120-W ThuVEP and HoLEP are potent, safe and efficient modalities of minimally invasive surgeries for patients with LUTS due to BPH. Compared with HoLEP, 120-W TbuVEP offers advantages of reduction of laser enucleation time and improvement of laser efficiency.展开更多
