Abstract

The surgical treatment of prostatic obstruction associated with a clinically significant bladder diverticulum has classically combined open diverticulectomy with relief of the bladder outlet obstruction. This report demonstrates that this result may be efficiently achieved by performing transurethral surgery followed immediately by laparoscopic excision of the diverticulum. As assessed by a retrospective comparison with four open bladder diverticulectomies combined with transurethral resection of the prostate, laparoscopic diverticulectomy markedly reduces the postoperative and convalescence period. The overall financial saving that ensues may benefit both the patient and the healthcare system. Sequential laparoscopic bladder diverticulectomy and transurethral resection of the prostate illustrates the increasing possibilities of minimally invasive surgery.
