Surgical management of benign prostatic hyperplasia has dramatically changed in the recent years towards higher proportion of endoscopic treatment and fewer perioperative complications. Nevertheless the question of urinary and sexual quality of life after surgical treatment remains partially unresolved with a high proportion of retrograde ejaculation after conventional surgical treatments.

Feasibility study to evaluate efficacy and safety of Adjustable Transobturator Male System (ATOMS®) for male stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after transurethral resection of the prostate.

Twenty patients were implanted ATOMS® for SUI caused by transurethral resection of the prostate with or without radiotherapy.

OBJECTIVE - To assess patient-reported functional and quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes associated with various surgical treatments for benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).

MATERIALS AND METHODS - An independent third-party survey was sent to all patients who underwent any surgical treatment for BPH at our institution from January 2007 through January 2013.

According to the EAU Guidelines, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has so far still been considered as the gold standard for surgical treatment for patients with obstructing clinical benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).

The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes between thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP) and plasmakinetic bipolar resection of the prostate (PKRP) for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in a prospective randomized trial with 5 years of follow-up.

Prostatic arterial embolization (PAE) has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to TURP; however, there are limited cost comparisons reported. The purpose of this study was to compare in-hospital direct costs of elective PAE and TURP in a hospital setting.

We examined the effect of previous transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) on multiple oncologic and continence outcomes after robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). We performed a retrospective cohort study of a total of 2693 patients from 2007 to 2014 who underwent RARP.

To compare monopolar and bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (M-TURP and B-TURP, respectively) focusing on erectile and ejaculatory functions in a randomized trial.

Between January 2013 and December 2014, all consecutive TURP candidates with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were prospectively randomized 1:1 into M-TURP/B-TURP arms and followed up at 2, and 4 weeks, 6 and 12 months after surgery.

BACKGROUND - Fresh patient specimens of castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) are invaluable for studying tumor heterogeneity and responses to current treatments. They can be used for primary patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) or serially transplantable PDXs, but only a small proportion of samples grow successfully. To improve the efficiency and quality of PDXs, we investigated the factors that determine the initial engraftment of patient tissues derived from TURP specimens.

OBJECTIVE - To evaluate the impact of a luteinising hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist, goserelin acetate (GA), on surgical blood loss during transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), as well as its histopathological effect on prostatic microvessel density (MVD).

To examine the long-term outcomes of high dose rate brachytherapy boost (HDR-BT) combined with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer patients.

Data from 95 patients who underwent combined EBRT (50.

To analyze actual long-term medical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and compare the incurred cost with that of BPH patient who underwent immediate surgery.

Patients who were first diagnosed with BPH from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2010 were identified using the Clinical Data Warehouse.

Urethral stricture is a well-known complication after transurethral surgeries. The incidence of urethral stricture after transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) varies between 2.2 and 9.8%. Most of the cases present within 6 months of transurethral surgery.

Holmium laser enucleation of prostate (HoLEP) is being performed with increasing frequency as a minimally invasive alternative to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for the surgical management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the gold standard method for surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). So, the complications of TURP is important, in which erectile dysfunction is the most important.

Minimally invasive alternatives to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) such as prostate arterial embolization (PAE) and photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) are being explored as adjuncts in the care of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

To assess efficacy and safety of monopolar enucleation of the prostate (MEP) and to compare it with the current treatment standard for medium-sized prostates, < 80 cc, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).

To describe preliminary results of our monopolar Transurethral Enucleation of Prostatic Adenoma (mTUEPA).

A consecutive series of patient treated with mTUEPA, a retrograde enucleation of the prostatic adenoma performed by means of a standard monopolar resectoscope, were prospectively enrolled.

To report 1-year safety and efficacy outcomes after either Aquablation or TURP for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms related to BPH.

This double-blinded, multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial assigned 181 patients with BPH-related moderate-to-severe lower urinary tract symptoms to either electrocautery-based prostate resection (TURP) or Aquablation.

Technological advancements in urologic endoscopy within the last decades have improved outcomes following bladder outlet reduction surgery while minimizing risks of short- and intermediate-term complications.

Background: Dystrophic calcification (DC) can occur as a reaction to tissue damage and necrosis. So far, this has never been described as a complication after conventional transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).

Objective: To compare bleeding and transfusion rate between patients who undergo standard transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and patients who undergo DRY CUT® TURP. Materials and methods: A retrospective comparison was made of 626 patients who underwent a standard monopolar TURP during 2004-2007 at the Karolinska University Hospital Huddinge with 620 patients who underwent monopolar DRY CUT® TURP during 2011-2014 at the same clinic.

Repair of post-TURP sphincter urethral strictures represents challenging problem, due to the risk of urinary incontinence after the repair. We described a surgical technique we use to repair these strictures preserving urinary continence in patients with incompetent bladder neck.

Rezum is a minimally invasive transurethral water vapour therapy for benign prostatic enlargement which uses thermal energy for treatment. The short-term results show it to have good outcomes with a potential for outpatient-based treatment preserving sexual function.

Purpose; Male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is common in men and can have negative effects on quality of life (QOL). It is the hope that this Guideline becomes a reference on the effective evidence-based surgical management of LUTS/BPH.

TUERP, which is based on TURP, technically has been proven to be safe and effective with reduced complication rates. Due to the lack of systematic pre-clinical training, the surgery is learnt only inside the operative theatre in the majority of the Chinese medical centers.

To investigate the safety and efficacy of the combination of suprapubic prostatectomy with transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for the treatment of large volume benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

To evaluate long-term IPSS score and urinary quality of life after radiotherapy for prostate cancer, in patients with prior history of surgical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

In this retrospective study, we reviewed medical records of patients treated in our department, between 2007 and 2013 with surgery for BPH followed by radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer.
