Transurethral resection.

چکیده
This can be a very satisfying technique, once the surgeon has mastered the necessary manceuvres to keep haemorrhage under control. A very wide variety of urological conditions can be treated by transurethral resection, from bladder tumours to prostatic hypertrophy, and though the resectionist may try to describe a routine procedure, the variety of problems that arise from one patient to another are such that no two cases are entirely alike, and there is certainly no risk of being involved in a monotonous routine. One of the most satisfying features of the operation is its completeness, as the magnification obtained by the optical system gives the operator the opportunity of extremely accurate surgery. The patient has the satisfaction of not having an abdominal wound and its associated discomfort, and is therefore able to move about and breathe easily immediately he recovers from the anaesthetic. In resection of the hypertrophied prostate it is possible to stop the operation and withdraw if the patient's condition is causing any concern. Having achieved haemostasis, the patient can be returned to the recovery ward for full resuscitative measures with very little delay. The mortality from transurethral resection is now generally accepted as somewhere in the region of 1%, and even this fig-

متن کاملFluid extravasation caused by bladder perforation during bipolar transurethral resection using saline solution -a case report-
Transurethral resection of the prostate is the gold standard in the operative management of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate using saline solution is a safe technique and reduces the risk of transurethral resection syndrome. This report discusses a rare complication of bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate: the extravasation of 0.9% saline ...
متن کاملTreatment and management of high-grade T1 bladder cancer: what should we do after second TUR?
Most T1 bladder cancers are high grade and have the potential to progress to muscle invasion and extravesical dissemination. Many studies reported that ∼50% of patients displayed residual tumors when a second transurethral resection was performed 2-6 weeks after the initial resection for patients who were diagnosed with T1 bladder cancer. Furthermore, muscle-invasive disease was detected by the...
متن کاملClassic versus Inguinal Approach for Obturator Nerve Block in Transurethral Resection of Bladder Cancer under Spinal Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Single spinal anesthesia in transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) has been reported to be unable to prevent obturator nerve stimulation and adductor muscle contraction, which can cause complications like bladder perforation. The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the classic and inguinal approaches for obturator nerve block (ONB). Seventy patients with cancers of the...
متن کاملA case of venous air embolism during transurethral resection of the prostate.
Venous air embolism is a rare complication during transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). We report a case of air embolism during TURP under general anesthesia in a 56-year-old man. Incorrect assembly of the resectoscope-drain aspiration system caused rapid entrainment of air into the vein of the prostate bed. Rapid recognition of the condition and prompt treatment are required.
