Abstract

We compared the early postoperative morbidity of transurethral resection of the prostate to minimally invasive treatment alternatives with respect to the objective rate of complications and subjective morbidity assessed by a patient addressed diary-type questionnaire. Parameters evaluated preoperatively were the International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS), free flow study, post-void residual, transrectal ultrasonography and a pressure-flow study. The patients underwent transurethral resection (28), transrectal high intensity focused ultrasound (20), visual laser ablation (15), transurethral needle ablation (15) and transurethral electrosurgical vaporization (17) of the prostate. On the day of hospital discharge the patients received the questionnaire and were asked to answer daily 7 questions concerning micturition status. After 6 weeks the questionnaire was returned and an I-PSS, uroflowmetry and post-void residual were obtained. Preoperatively, there was no statistically significant difference regarding the I-PSS, peak flow rate, prostate volume and degree of bladder outlet obstruction. After 6 weeks the peak flow rate improved most prominently after transurethral electrosurgical vaporization (+ 13.2 ml. per second), transur...Continue Reading
