Abstract

Purpose;To evaluate the clinical effect of transurethral electrovaporization of prostate in treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Methods: One hundred and twenty cases of BPH were treated with transurethral electrovaporization of the prostate. Followed up for 3 to 12 months. Results: All cases were successful treated. After operation,the average of IPSS decreased by 14. 0,the average of maximum of uroflowmetry was 18. 0 ml/s. During following up, the curative effect was stable. There were no serious complications observed. Conclusions: To treat benign prostatic hyperplasia by transurethral electrovaporization of the prostate can get stable and effective medical results,less complications,the average of hospital stay is short.
