Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of prostatic arterial embolization (PAE) and transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) in treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods Totally 40 patients with BPH from Jan 2016 to Oct 2016 were selected.All patients were divided into PAE (n=20) and TURP (n=20) group by random number table method.The curative effect indexes (international prostate symptom score [IPSS],quality of life score [QOL],prostate volume [PV],postvoid residual [PVR],maximum urinary flow rate [Qmax] and prostate-specific antigen [PSA]),the complications and side effects,as well as the incidence of sexual dysfunction were analyzed and compared between the two groups.Results No statistical difference of IPSS,QOL,PV,PVR,Qmax nor PSA was found between the two groups before operation (all P>0.05).IPSS,QOL,PV,PVR and PSA were significantly lower than those before operation 3,6 and 12 months after operation (all P<0.05),while Qmax was obviously higher than that before operation (P<0.05).Three months after operation,the curative effect indexes were statistically different between the two groups (all P<0.05),while no statistical difference was found 6 and 12 months after operation (P>0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications in TURP group was higher than that in PAE group (x2 =4.329,P=0.037).There was no statistical difference in the incidence of sexual dysfunction between the two groups (x2=2.105,P=0.147).Conclusion PAE and TURP can significantly alleviate clinical symptoms of patients with BPH.Three months after operation,the efficacy of TURP is better than PAE,but PAE is more minimally invasive and has fewer complications.
