Abstract Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is one of the most common problems of aging men, it can be associated with bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) that affect quality of life. The range of therapeutic options for the management of BPH continues to widen as technology continues to evolve and improve. But when surgical treatment is considered, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is still the gold standard. Despite an improved safety profile with technologic and anesthetic advances, certain significant morbidities still occur. Transurethral resection (TUR) syndrome is an uncommon but potentially lifethreatening complication of monopolar TURP in which glycine solution is used for irrigation. |
