Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate with early complete transection of the urethral mucosa at the tip of the prostate on urinary control function and sexual function in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:Eighty patients with BPH who underwent holmium laser enucleation of the prostate in the Affiliated Hospital of Yan′an University from January 2019 to January 2023 were collected as the research subjects. The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. The observation group underwent early holmium laser enucleation of the prostate with early complete transection of the urethral mucosa at the tip of the prostate, while the control group underwent conventional holmium laser prostatectomy. The general conditions, urinary control function and sexual function of the two groups of patients after the operation were compared. The adverse ejaculation conditions 6 months after the operation were recorded.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in age and prostate volume between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative indwelling urinary catheter time and postoperative hospital stay in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The International Prostate Symptom Scale (IPSS) score, Quality of Life (QOL) score, the maximum flow rate (Qmax), and post void residual (PVR) in the bladder of the two groups of patients 6 months after the operation were compared with those before the operation, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences between the groups (all P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) scores and Erection Hardness Grading Scale (EHGS) grades of the two groups of patients 6 months after surgery compared with those before surgery (all P>0.05), and there were also no statistically significant differences between the groups (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the ejaculation function score and ejaculation distress score 6 months after the operation in the observation group compared with those before the operation (all P>0.05), while in the control group, the ejaculation function score 6 months after the operation was lower than that before the operation, and the ejaculation distress score was higher than that before the operation (all P<0.05). The ejaculation function score and ejaculation distress score of the observation group 6 months after the operation were significantly better than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The incidences of retrograde ejaculation and reduced semen volume 6 months after the operation in the observation group were both lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of rapid ejaculation, ejaculation pain, hematospermia, etc. between the two groups of patients 6 months after the operation (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In holmium laser enucleation of the prostate, early complete transection of the urethral mucosa at the tip of the prostate has an improving effect on urinary control function and sexual function in patients with BPH, and increases the confidence in postoperative life and satisfaction with orgasm of BPH patients.
