Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Context:

  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in aging men.
  • Transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) is a surgical option for BPH.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the outcomes of transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) in 205 patients.
  • To analyze patient demographics, surgical details, and complications.

Summary:

  • The study reviewed 205 patients undergoing TUIP for prostatic obstruction.
  • Most patients were aged 60-69, with Grade I prostates. Bilateral incisions were common, with short operating times (15 min) and hospital stays (3 days). Postoperative hematuria was the most frequent complication.

Impact:

  • TUIP is a viable, minimally invasive surgical alternative for early-stage BPH.
