[Practical experiences in the execution of transurethral prostate resection]

In comparison to the open adenomectomy the transurethral electroresection of the prostate demands extraordinarily high technical abilities of the operator and at the same time he is confronted with a considerable psychic and physical stress. But almost inversely proportional to this personal engagement is the minimum stress of the patient after operation, the nursing staff and the economy of the hospital. From the point of view of a clinical urological department with a profile of general care the author adopts a definite attitude to the problems of the establishment of the transurethral electroresection of the prostate.
