Abstract:
Objective To compare the safety and short-term efficacy of thulium laser resection of the prostate (TMLRP) and bipolar transurethral plasmakinetic prostatectomy (TUPKP) for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients.Methods A total of 100 patients diagnosed with BPH were randomly divided into 2 groups:TMLRP group (50 cases) and TUPKP group (50 cases).There was no significant difference of preoperative variables such as age,prostate volume,PSA,IPSS,Qmax and PVR between the two groups (P＞0.05).The perioperative parameters and therapeutic effects were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results Comparison between TMLRP group and TUPKP group included:operating time ((61.2±24.2) min versus (30.1±15.9) min),catheterization time ((1.8±0.4) d versus (3.2±0.6) d)and postoperative hospital stay ((3.3±0.8) d versus (4.1±1.3) d).Significant differences in these parameters were found between the two groups(P＜0.05).Compared with TUPKP group,the blood loss and postoperative bladder irrigation were significantly less in TMLRP group.One month postoperatively,there were 4 cases of urethral stricture in TUPKP group.Three months postoperatively,IPSS,QOL,Qmax and PVR were significantly improved in both groups (P＜0.01),but no significant difference detected between the 2 groups (P＜0.05).Conclusions TMLRP is superior to TUPKP in term of safety and tolerability (decreased blood loss,complication rate and short recovery time),and as efficacious as TUPKP in efficacy.Compared with TUPKP,operating time were significantly longer in TMLRP group
