[Phytoperfusion of the bladder after adenomectomy]
Summary
This study explored herbal infusion phytoperfusion for bladder irrigation after prostatic adenomectomy. The treatment effectively reduced blood loss and inflammation, with no reported side effects in patients.
Area of Science:
- Phytotherapy
- Urology
- Postoperative care
Context:
- Prostatic adenomectomy often leads to postoperative complications such as bleeding and inflammation.
- Continuous bladder irrigation is a common postoperative management strategy.
Purpose:
- To evaluate the efficacy of a specific herbal infusion for continuous bladder irrigation following prostatic adenomectomy.
- To assess the impact of phytoperfusion on reducing postoperative blood loss, bacteriuria, and inflammation.
Summary:
- A herbal infusion comprising Urtica dioica, Hypericum perforatum, Matricaria recutita, Plantago major, Achillea millefolium, Betula, Artemisia vulgaris, and Fragaria vesca was used for continuous bladder irrigation in 22 patients post-prostatic adenomectomy.
- The phytoperfusion was administered via suprapubic and urethral drainage systems.
- The treatment demonstrated a reduction in postoperative blood loss, bacteriuria, and prevented hemorrhagic and purulent inflammation.
Impact:
- Phytoperfusion with the described herbal infusion offers a promising natural alternative for managing postoperative complications after prostatic adenomectomy.
- The study indicates a favorable safety profile with no reported systemic side effects, suggesting potential for wider clinical application.
