Abstract
Objectives:
We presents an alternative to prevent the obturator nerve stimulation during TUBR.
Material And Method:
We revise 400 bladder tumours corresponding to 218 patients, 46.8% of them localized in lateral bladder wall. An alternative technique is used for that blockade.
Results:
There have been no adductor contractions in more than 95% of TUBR.
Conclusions:
The alternative technique may reduce the stimulation of the obturador nerve and the risk of bladder perforation.
