Transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) syndrome occurs when irrigating fluid is absorbed, causing hyponatremia and potential shock. Early diagnosis and prevention through surgical technique are crucial for patient safety.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Nephrology
  • Anesthesiology

Context:

  • Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a common surgical procedure.
  • The use of large volumes of irrigating fluid during TURP carries risks.
  • TURP syndrome (TURPS) is a rare but serious complication.

Purpose:

  • To describe the clinical manifestations, pathophysiology, and management of TURP syndrome.
  • To highlight the importance of early diagnosis and prevention strategies.
  • To discuss current and future diagnostic methods.

Summary:

  • TURP syndrome results from the absorption of irrigating fluid, leading to hyponatremia, hyperammonemia, and potential organ dysfunction.
  • Symptoms range from mild neurological disturbances to severe cardiovascular and renal complications.

  • Treatment focuses on managing hyponatremia, while prevention involves optimizing surgical technique and duration.

    • Impact:

    • Improved understanding of TURPS pathophysiology aids in clinical management.
    • Emphasis on surgical technique and duration can reduce TURPS incidence.
    • Monitoring expired ethanol concentrations may offer a future early diagnostic tool.
