Objective:
To evaluate the effect of intracavitary retrograde dissection during transurethral vaporization resection of the prostate (TUVRP).
Methods:
The efficacy of intracavitary retrograde dissection of the prostate with PK bipolar generation was evaluated in 260 cases in view of the volume of intraoperative bleeding, operation time, safety and postoperative bleeding, catheterization time and prognosis in comparison with the results of exclusive use of TUVRP.
Results:
Intracavitary retrograde dissection of the prostate provided good operative view as compared with conventional TUVRP.
Conclusion:
Intracavitary retrograde dissection is a practically feasible procedure for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
