Abstract:
This study was performed after a mean postoperative period of approximately 2 years. Results after transurethral resection (TUR) appeared to be inferior to results after suprapubic prostatectomy in patients' subjective symptomatology concerning frequency, nocturia, urinary stream complaints and incontinence. Late postoperative complications were found in a greater extent after TUR. TUR showed more often pathologic uroflow and pathologic residual urine data. Generally speaking, the results after suprapubic prostatectomy were substantially more satisfactory than the results after TUR.
