ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective: the aim of this study was to compare the results of open and videolaparoscopic transvesical prostatectomy techniques in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in a tertiary hospital. Methods: we reviewed medical records of patients who underwent transvesical adenectomy due to BPH between March 2019 and March 2021 at the urology service of Hospital de Clínicas do Paraná (HCPR), 42 patients were included in the open transvesical prostatectomy group and 22 in the videolaparoscopic group. Then, a comparison was made between the techniques in terms of surgical time, bleeding, length of stay, need for intensive care, among others, in addition to postoperative outcome. Results: the mean surgical time was shorter in the open technique compared to the laparoscopic technique (141 min vs 274 min). The videolaparoscopic group had a shorter mean hospital stay (3.5 days vs 6.36 days). There was no statistical significance in the comparison regarding the need for an intensive care unit, as well as in the assessment of postoperative bleeding. Conclusion: comparatively, the techniques demonstrated a similar outcome, with a low rate of complications and satisfactory results for the treatment of BPH. The laparoscopic technique is a surgery with a shorter hospital stay, but at the expense of a longer surgical time.
RESUMO Objetivo: o objetivo deste estudo foi comparar o resultado das técnicas de prostatectomia transvesical aberta e videolaparoscópica no tratamento de hiperplasia prostática benigna (HPB) em um hospital terciário. Métodos: foram revisados prontuários de pacientes submetidos a adenectomia transvesical devido a HPB entre março de 2019 a março de 2021 no serviço de urologia do Hospital de Clínicas do Paraná (HCPR), sendo incluídos 42 pacientes no grupo prostatectomia transvesical aberta e 22 no grupo videolaparoscópico. Em seguida foi feita a comparação entre as técnicas nos quesitos tempo cirúrgico, sangramento, tempo de internamento, necessidade de terapia intensiva, entre outras, além de desfecho pós-operatório. Resultados: o tempo cirúrgico médio foi menor na técnica aberta em comparação com a técnica videolaparoscópica (141 min vs 274 min). O grupo videolaparoscópico apresentou um tempo médio de internamento menor (3,5 dias vs 6,36 dias). Não houve significância estatística na comparação quanto a necessidade de unidade de terapia intensiva, assim como na avaliação do sangramento pós-operatório. Conclusão: comparativamente, as técnicas demonstraram um desfecho semelhante, com baixa taxa de complicações e resultados satisfatórios para o tratamento da HPB. Sendo a técnica videolaparoscópica uma cirurgia com menor tempo de internamento, porém às custas de um maior tempo cirúrgico. .
ABSTRACT
Contexto: Al momento existen pocos datos científicos que comparen las tres modalidades de tratamiento en Hiperplasia Prostática Benigna para determinar el mejor resultado clínico, considerando que se trata de una patología cuya incidencia aumenta a medida que aumenta la esperanza de vida poblacional. Objetivo: Comparar los resultados clínicos entre el tratamiento inicial farmacológico, no farmacológico y quirúrgico, basándose en la clínica de prostatismo en pacientes con Hiperplasia Prostática Benigna durante el período de enero 2014 a diciembre 2016. Diseño: Estudio Observacional, tipo Cohorte Retrospectiva. Pacientes y Métodos: Se procedió a dividir a 399 pacientes de acuerdo a la modalidad de tratamiento recibida. Se comparó la disminución del cuadro clínico en la primera consulta postratamiento utilizando una matriz de evaluación de síntomas urinarios elaborada por los autores, basada en la escala IPSS, que estratificó a los pacientes por el grado de severidad de la sintomatología. Se utilizó el software SPSS®. Resultados: Dentro del tratamiento no farmacológico, existió una diferencia de medias de 1,67 (IC 95% 0,49 2,85, p < 0,05); para el farmacológico fue de 0,21 (IC 95% 0,92 1,34, p = 0,713) y para el quirúrgico fue de 8,23 (IC 95% 7,19 9,27, p < 0,05). Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre los tres grupos durante la fase pretratamiento, tras estratificarlos de acuerdo al grado de severidad. Post- intervención, se compararon los resultados clínicos de cada tratamiento hallando que en pacientes con síntomas leves no existieron diferencias significativas (p = 0,087), no así para pacientes con sintomatología moderada y severa en donde se encontró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa. Conclusión: En pacientes con sintomatología urinaria catalogada como moderada y severa dentro de esta muestra, el tratamiento quirúrgico disminuyó la sintomatología urinaria en mayor proporción en comparación con el tratamiento farmacológico y el no farmacológico
Background: Currently there are few scientific data comparing the three therapeutic modalities of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia to determine the best clinical outcome, considering that it is a pathology whose incidence increases as population life expectancy arise. Objectives: To compare the clinical results between the initial pharmacological, nonpharmacological and surgical treatment, based on clinical signs of prostatism in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia during the period between January 2014 and December 2016. Study Design: Retrospective Cohort Study. Methods: 399 patients were divided according to the modality of treatment received: nonpharmacological, pharmacological and surgical. The decrease of the symptoms was compared with the first post-treatment consultation by using a matrix of evaluation of urinary symptoms elaborated by the authors, based on SPSS International Score; this tool stratified the patients by the severity of the symptomatology. SPSS® software was used. Results: Within the non-pharmacological treatment, there was a mean difference of 1.67 (95% CI 0.49 - 2.85, p <0.05); for the pharmacological it was 0.21 (95% CI 0.92 - 1.34, p = 0.713) and for the surgical was 8.23 (95% CI 7.19 - 9.27, p <0.05). Significant differences were found between the three groups during the pretreatment phase, after stratifying them according to the degree of severity. Post-intervention, the clinical results of each treatment were compared, finding that in patients with mild symptoms there were no significant differences (p = 0.087), not so for patients with moderate and severe symptoms where a statistically significant difference was found. Conclusion: In patients with urinary symptoms classified as moderate and severe within this sample, surgical treatment decreased urinary symptomatology in greater proportion compared to pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment

OBJECTIVES: To analyse the severity profiles and progression criteria in patients diagnosed of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in urology clinics in Spain. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A multicentre observational epidemiological study conducted in Spain between May-November 2008. A representative sample of 392 urologist gathered socio-demographic, clinical and patient-centered data from three consecutive patients with new diagnostic of BPH in urology clinics. RESULTS: A total of 1.115 patients were evaluated. Mean age was 65.7 years old. Mean time from the onset of symptoms to diagnostic was 18,8 months. Mean IPSS score was 17.2. 63 patients (5,7%) had mild symptoms; 670 (60,1%) had moderate symptoms with a mean IPSS score of 14.6 and 382 (34.3%) had severe symptoms with a mean IPSS score of 23.7. Mean PSA was 2.6 ng/ml and ultrasound measured prostatic volume was 49.2cc. A total of 713 (63,9%) patients met progression criteria (PSA >1.5 ng/ml and volume>30 cc). Symptoms severity was directly correlated with age, prostatic volume, PSA, presence of progression criteria and time from the onset of symptoms and inversely correlated with urine flow rate (P<.001). Progression criteria was directly correlated with age, symptoms severity and inversely with urine flow rate (P<.01). CONCLUSIONS: More than 90% of patients diagnosed of BPH in urology clinics in Spain had moderate to severe symptoms. Two thirds met progression criteria that correlate with age and severity of symptoms.
