From 6/1981 to 6/1996 a total of 978 consecutive patients (mean age: 69) presenting with bladder outlet obstructive were admitted to Viet Duc hospital for elective transurethral resection of prostate). The feagure of TURP were increasing from year to year and the TURP/ open surgery ratio was 80% in 1996. The procedures were performed with low mortality (0.3%) and low morbidity (bleeding 0.6%, capsular perforation (0.7%). TURP syndrome (0.3%), dysuria (1.8%) incontinence (1.1%), urethral stricture (1.5%) Hospital stay: 5(2 days. Overall outcome: good: 77%, moderate 19%; unsatis factory: 4%.

The authors report a retrospective study of 212 resections for benign prostatic hypertrophy during 3 years (1998-2000), yielding a mean weight of 30 grams. The mortality rate was 0%. There was only one abundant bleeding case (0.4%). There were 5 cases of dysuria (2.3%) and 2 cases (0.9%) of incontinence. The experience of surgeons and the improvements in equipment appeared to be two essential factors of the primary results of endoscopic resection for benign prostatic hypertrophy at Viet Tiep hospital.

This study involved 307 patients with benign hypertrophic prostate (BHP) who were underwent tumor removing surgically using Hryntschak’s method from January 1995 to June 1999 at the Military Central Hospital 108. Age of participants ranged from 50 to 89 years. The results showed that the older the patient was, the more severe the BHP-related urinary problems are and the poorer the post-operative recovery is. Post-operative monitoring and evaluation of result of operation for BHP need to be performed at lest 3 months post-operation, as manifestations of urinary disorders were stable. At 3-month postoperation, 98/144 patients (68.1%) have good outcomes, 45/144 (31.2%) have moderate and 1/144 (0.7%) have poor outcomes.

These patients were admitted to hospital due to diuretic difficulty, increasing frequency of micturition (89.63%) and retention of urine (10.37%). Histopathological examination: Most of lesion are benign prostatic hyperplasia (98%, 15%). Carcinoma was detected only in 10 cases (1.85%).

OBJECTIVETo improve Madigan prostatectomy (MPC) for a much satisfactory effect in open surgery.

METHODSA total of 52 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were treated using MPC. The MPC procedure was modified by exposing anterior prostatic urethra near the bladder neck and conjunction with cystotomy. This modified procedure preserved prostatic urethra intact and could also deal with intracystic lesions at the same time.

RESULTSThe intact of prostatic urethra was kept completely or almost for 48 cases. The hemorrhage amount during modified procedure was a less. The mean operative time was 120 minutes. The 35 patients had been followed up for 1 - 12 months. The average Qmax was 18.9 ml/s. The cystourethrography revealed that the urethra and bladder neck were intact in 8 patients postoperatively. Furthermore, the prostatic urethra was obviously wider after modified MPC.

CONCLUSIONSThe modified MPC can reduce the urethra injury and enlarge the MPC indications. The modified technique is easy to perform with little complications and much more satisfactory clinical result. The modified MPC is highly recommended.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of simultaneous open prostatectomy and preperitoneal inguinal herniorrhaphy.

METHODSTwenty-one patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) and inguinal hernia, underwent simultaneous suprapubic or retropubic prostatectomy and preperitoneal inguinal herniorrhaphy through Pfannenstiel's incision. In 4 cases with bigger inguinal mass, hernia repair was performed with polypropylene meshwork (PPM).

RESULTSThe 21 patients were followed up for 6 months to 7 years. There were 2 cases of recurrence (9.5%), with no morbidity and mortality in the other 19 cases.

CONCLUSIONSOpen prostatectomy and preperitoneal inguinal herniorrhaphy can be performed during the same session without increasing infection and recurrence. The operation method is simple and the effect is positive, especially for older men.
