Abstract
Monopolar TURP which is the gold standard surgical treatment for patients with LUTS due to BPH was challenged by TURis system that uses bipolar energy for transuretheral resection of the prostate avoiding complications of monopolar TURP mainly bleeding and TUR syndrome.
We performed this study to compare the safety and efficacy of bipolar TURP with the standard monopolar TURP aiming to improve outcome of this technique and decrease postoperative hospital stay and catheter time.
All patients were preoperatively evaluated in detail by medical history, physical examination including DRE, laboratory investigations including preoperative serum sodium level, and imaging evaluation including abdomino-pelvic ultrasound, IPSS was determined in all cases, patients were assessed also by uroflowmetry and PVR volume, in all groups operative time, resection time, decrease in hemoglobin and sodium values were determined.
