Abstract:
The article presents the results of an advanced method for retropubic removal of adenomatous prostate tissue. Retropubic extraurethral adenomectomy (REUA) was performed in 29 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Distinctive features of REUA from Lidsky-Millin surgery consist in the fact that the new method of prostatectomy preserve dorsal and urethral vascular plexus and the integrity of the prostatic urethra. Adenomatous tissues fragments are removed through a parallel longitudinally incisions made on the front surface of the fibrous capsule to adenoma. Surgical intervention is accompanied by minimal blood loss and minimal postoperative complications. Hemodynamics of the prostate and external genitalia is not disturbed.
