Transurethral resection of high-risk benign prostatic hyperplasia using bipolar plasmakinetic technique

Objective To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of transurethral resection of the prostate(PKRP)with plasmakinetic technique.Methods A total of 159 patients with high-risk benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) and being treated by PKRP were analyzed retrospectively.Results The duration of the PKRP procedure was 45(s=23) min.No transurethral resection(TURP) syndrome and abjuratory reflex occurred.The volume of intraoperative bleeding was 43(s=32) mL.Peak urine flow increased from 4.9(s=4.1) mL/s to 17.6(s=4.5) mL/s,P0.05,and IPSS decreased from 23.7(s=3.28) to 6.3(s=2.15,P0.01,in 3 months postoperatively.No residual urine occurred after the operation.Conclusions PKRP is effective and safe with less complication.It can be extend to cure high-risk hyperplasia of prostate.
