Liang Shang-fu

Abstract

Objective To evaluate the operative method and efficacy of plasmakinetic transurethral enucleation of prostate in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH).Methods All 195 cases of BPH were treated by plasmakinetic transurethral enucleation of prostate.The indices were statistically analyzed on preoperation and postoperation.Results The operative time was 35-160(mean 70±23)min;the weight of prostate was 22-170(mean 45±15)g;in 1-4 months postoperation,IPSS score decreased to 4-12(mean 8.0±3.2);Qmax increased to 12-47(18.8±5.7)mL/s;the time of peak urine flow was 5-13(mean 8.0±2.4)s;the residual urine was 0-22(12±6)mL.The differences had statistical significance(P0.01).Conclusion Plasmakinetic transurethral enucleation of prostate is feasible for treating BPH.It can gain the similar therapeutic effect of open intracapsule prostatectomy.
