چکیده
We report a case of unusual presentation of transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) syndrome. A 58-year-old male patient with grade III benign hypertrophic hyperplasia was scheduled for TURP under spinal anesthesia. At 120 min of surgery, the patient presented with atypical symptoms of tightness in the chest with difficulty in breathing. The electrolyte analysis revealed an acute hyponatremia (serum Na(+) 95 mEq/l). Patient was successfully treated with rapid infusion of 3% hypertonic saline along with furosemide.

The transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) syndrome is a severe vascular hypotension reaction that complicates endoscopic surgery as a result of massive irrigating fluid absorption causing a drop of serum sodium concentration of >15mmol/l inducing severe acute dilution hyponatraemia (HN) of <120mmol/l [1]. Volumetric Overload Shock (VOS) is a condition caused by massive fluid infusions ...
