Transurethral resection syndrome during transurethral vaporization of the prostate / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

Objective:To summarize the influencing factors and the preventative strategies of transurethral resection syndrome(TURS) in transurethral vaporization of the prostate(TVP). Methods:Among the consecutive 1360 patients who underwent TVP from Feb 1998 to 2004 Dec,using Circon vaporization device and vaporizaton-resection electrode,irrigating with 5% GS,TURS occured in 12 cases.The clinical materials were reviewed retrospectively. Results:At the end of operation,serum sodium declined and blood glucose rose apparently in the TURS cases.Of the 12 patients,mean operative time was 136 min(90-180min),prostate volume were Ⅲ?(50-75 g),perforation of the prostate capsule occurred in 8 cases,chill occued in 8 cases.TURS occurrence rate was relatively high in the high risk cases.The 12 patients were cured. Conclusion:The risk of TURS that still exists during TVP is relevant to perforation of the prostate capsule,operative time,irrigating pressure,the high risk cases,prostate volume and(so on.)
