Abstract This study was performed to evaluate the outcome of ThuLEP and B-TURP in the treatment of BPH. All Patients were preoperatively evaluated in detail by medical history, physical examination including DRE, laboratory investigations and imaging evaluation including abdomino-pelvic ultrasound. IPSS was determined in all cases. Patients were further assessed by uroflowmetry (Qmax). Assessment of IPSS, Qmax, and PVR urine volume were omitted in men presented by urinary retention. In both groups; resection time was analyzed. Postoperative catheter time and hospital stay were recorded. Intraoperative and postoperative complications and the need for blood transfusion were noted. The improvements of IPSS, Qmax, and PVR urine after six months were also recorded for all patients. |
