Innovative endoscopic enucleations of the prostate – Xie's Prostate Enucleations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the past 2 decades, endoscopic enucleation of the prostate has become a safe and effective surgical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), with comparable outcomes to traditional surgeries. Transurethral vapor enucleation and resection of the prostate (TVERP), transurethral vapor enucleation of the prostate (TVEP), and ultrasound-navigated TVEP (US-TVEP) are new, innovative endoscopic enucleation procedures. These procedures are named Xie's Prostate Enucleations (Xie's Procedures for short). Current clinical data indicate that Xie's Procedures are safe and effective treatment options for patients with BPH, especially for patients with larger prostates. Further prospective, randomized clinical trials compared with traditional transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) are still needed.

Holmium laser enucleation of prostate (HoLEP): the Methodist Hospital experience with greater than 75 gram enucleations.
PURPOSE Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) effectively removes obstructive prostate tissue in minimally invasive fashion. We present our large enucleation outcomes (greater than 75 gm retrieved). We examined post-procedural prostate specific antigen (PSA) and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) volume changes to assess tissue removal completeness. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospecti...

Early monocular enucleations were done in rats, either at embryonic day 16 (E16) or on the day of birth, and the surviving uncrossed pathway was studied either at birth for some of the animals enucleated prenatally, or in the adult for all of the other animals. The uncrossed pathways were studied by using HRP as a retrograde tracer. The neonatal enucleations showed the increase of the surviving...
