      transurethral resection of prostate on benign prostatic hyperplasia].
PG  - 428-30
AB  - OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy of transurethral electrovaporization of 
      prostate (TUVP) with transurethral resection of prostate (TURP). METHODS: 206 
      patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) whose prostatic 
      sizes were all less than 60 grams were randomly divided into two groups. 97 cases 
      were treated by TUVP while the other 109 cases were treated by TURP. The patients 
      who underwent either TUVP or TURP were followed up for 12-34 months with an 
      average of 20 months postoperatively. RESULTS: Both groups showed the significant 
      decline in the mean IPSS (international prostatic symptom score) (P < 0.01), the 
      mean PVR (Postovoiding Residual Volume) (P < 0.01), while increase in mean Qmax 
      (Peak uroflow rate) (P < 0.01) in 12 months, 24 months after the operation. There 
      were significant differences in the mean duration of operation or catheterization 
      postoperatively (P < 0.05). The main complications of post-operation in the two 
      groups were stress incontinence, TUR syndrome, urethral stricture, secondary 
      bleeding. CONCLUSIONS: Both TUVP and TURP are effective treatment for the patient 
      with BPH whose prostatic size is less than 60 grams. TUVP spends shorter time of 
      the operation and postoperative catheterization than that of TURP.
