ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Although a transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the most effective treatment method for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), it is difficult to predict the exact prognosis with this method. The peak flow rate (PFR) and post void residual urine (PVR), measured by abdominal compressing immediately after TURP in the operating room, were evaluated to see if they correlated with the surgical outcome. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Fifty patients, having undergone TURP, had their PFR and PVR measured by abdominal compressing, both before and after TURP in the operating room. The abdomen was compressed to 100cm H2O of intravesical pressure with a concrete test hammer. All patients were requested to undergo uroflowmetry, and their international prostate symptom scores (IPSS) were assessed, 3 months after surgery.RESULTS:
The PFR and PVR, measured by abdominal compressing immediately after TURP, correlated well with the PFR measured 3 months after the TURP (p<0.05). Higher PFR, lower PVR and a greater improvement in the IPSS were observed, but these were not statistically significant.CONCLUSIONS:
In conclusion, the PFR and PVR, measured by abdominal compressing immediately after TURP, are thought to be a good parameter for predicting the prognosis of TURP.
