Balloon catheter dilatation of the prostate (BCDP) offers a minimally invasive treatment for prostatic hypertrophy. This study found BCDP effective in 80% of patients experiencing urinary issues.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures

Context:

  • Prostatic hypertrophy commonly causes lower urinary tract symptoms.
  • Dysuria and urinary retention are significant quality of life impairing symptoms.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of balloon catheter dilatation of the prostate (BCDP) for treating prostatic hypertrophy.
  • To assess the feasibility of adapting BCDP for local hospital settings.

Summary:

  • BCDP was performed on 25 patients with symptomatic prostatic hypertrophy.
  • A 25 mm x 50 mm balloon catheter was inflated at 4-6 atm for 10-15 minutes.
  • Follow-up over 8-14 months indicated satisfactory results in 20 patients (80%).

Impact:

  • BCDP demonstrates a high success rate for alleviating urinary symptoms associated with prostatic hypertrophy.
