Bipolar plasmakinetic enucleation and resection of prostate for 120 benign prostatic hyperplasia patients

Objective To evaluate the surgical effects and methods of bipolar plasmakinetic enucleation and resection of prostate for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods A total of 120 patients with BPH were performed bipolar plasmakinetic resection of prostate and bipolar plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate for BPH. The blood loss,operative time,catheterization time,hospital stay and complications were monitored and analyzed. Results All of the patients were operated successfully. All the cases were followed up for 3-6 months. No urethral stricture, bladder neck contracture, rebleeding, permanent urinary incontinence occurred. The maximum flow rate increased from (6.1 ± 2.5) ml/s peroperative to (16.3 ± 2.2) ml/s at 3 months postoperative,and international prostate symptoms score (IPSS) decreased from (23.8 ± 5.2) scores peroperative to (4.6 ± 3.9) scores (P < 0.01). Conclusion Bipolar plasmakinetic enucleation and resection of prostate for BPH has many advantages such as thorough excision of the prostate,less blood loss in operation,less operation time and complications, higher security and quicker recovery, so it deserves clinical application.
