Abstract:
Objective To evaluate surgical complications and outcomes based on prostate size in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treated with plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate (PKEP).Methods A retrospective review was conducted of PKEP performed in 326 patients with BPH.According to the prostate size on preoperative transrectal ultrasonography measurement,patients were divided into three groups:groupl:<40ml (n =92),group2:40~80ml (n =155),and group3:>80ml (n =79).Intraoperative and perioperative parameters were evaluated.Patient perioperative data and postoperative outcomes were compared.Patients were followed up at 1,3,6 and 12 months after surgery.Early and late complications were recorded.Results There were significant differences among three groups regarding the mean operative time (P < 0.01) and the mean resected tissue weight (P < 0.01).However,enucleation efficiency (P < 0.01) in gm tissue per minute increased significantly as prostate size increased.Mean hemoglobin decrease (P >0.05),mean serum sodium decrease (P >0.05),mean postoperative irrigation time (P > 0.05),mean catheter time (P > 0.05) and mean hospital stay (P >0.05) did not differ significantly among three groups.Three groups had a similar and significant postoperative improvement in international prostate symptom score (IPSS),quality of life (QOL),maximum urine rate (Qmax),and post-void residual urine volume(PVR) independent of prostate size (P < 0.01),but no significant difference was found among three groups during 1,3,6 and 12-month follow-up (P > 0.05).Perioperative and postoperative complications did not depend on prostate size (P > 0.05).Conchsions Although patients with a larger BPH required significantly longer operation time in PKEP,prostate size did not affect perioperative and postoperative complications or micturition improvement.
