Comparative Study between Bipolar Transurethral Resection and Bipolar Transurethral Enucleation of the Prostate for Managing Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Bipolar transurethral enucleation of prostate versus photoselective vaporization for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (>70 ml)

AB016. Transurethral PlasmaKinetic enucleation of prostate versus transurethral PlasmaKinetic resection of prostate for benign prostate hyperplasia

Background: To compare the efficacy and safety of transurethral PlasmaKinetic enucleation of prostate (PKEP) versus transurethral PlasmaKinetic resection of prostate (PKRP) for benign prostate hyperplasia. Methods: The Prospective and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) pertaining to PKEP and PKRP for benign prostate hyperplasia were retrieved from PubMed, Wanfang and so on. The level of trials...

Bipolar plasmakinetic transurethral resection of the prostate vs. transurethral enucleation and resection of the prostate: pre- and postoperative comparisons of parameters used in assessing benign prostatic enlargement

Introduction : Transurethral enucleation and resection of the prostate (TUERP) may offer a better treatment for benign prostatic enlargement. We compared the perioperative parameters and outcome following bipolar plasmakinetic transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and TUERP. Methods : Data from two independent institutions were reviewed retrospectively. 50 and 45 consecutive patients w...

Transurethral Resection of Prostate Abscess: Is It Different from Conventional Transurethral Resection for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia?

Purpose. To present our experience of prostate abscess management by modified transurethral resection (TUR) technique. Methods. Seventeen men with prostate abscess undergoing TUR between 2003 and 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. Details of demography, surgical procedures, complications, and followup were noted. Results. With a mean age of 61.53 ± 8.58 years, all patients had multifocal absce...

Comparison of Effectiveness of Monopolar and Bipolar Transurethral Resection of the Prostate and Open Prostatectomy in Large Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

PURPOSE Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is still considered the gold standard in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). However, open prostatectomy is indicated for prostate glands over 75 ml. There have been few reports concerning the use of TURP for large prostate glands over 100 ml. Herein we compared the effectiveness of monopolar TURP, bipolar TURP, and open pr...
