    Does Bipolar Transuretral Resection of Prostate Increase the Incidence of Urethral Stricture?
    (2021) Hasirci, Eray; Kervancioglu, Enis; Ozkardes, Hakan; 0000-0002-4147-2966; 0000-0003-3465-9092; AAI-7997-2021; AAM-4475-2021
    Objective: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) remains the gold standard surgical method for patients with benign prostate obstruction. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and complication rates of bipolar TURP applied with saline and monopolar TURP applied with glycine, performed by the same surgeon. Design: Retrospective study Setting: Department of Urology, Baskent University, Ankara, Turkey Subjects: Ninety-two patients who were scheduled for monopolar and bipolar TURP Intervention: All the surgical procedures were applied under spinal anesthesia and the procedure was done by the same surgeon. The cases were compared in respect of the time of the procedure, the amount of resected tissue, the speed of resection, length of hospital stay, irrigation duration, changes in serum haemoglobin, changes in maximum flow rate, changes in amount of post-voiding residual urine and complications. Main Outcome Measure: Urethral stricture Results: The operating time was longer in the bipolar group and associated with that, the resection speed was lower. Urethral stricture was found to be greater in the bipolar group (11 cases of the 58 bipolar TURP patients (18.96%) and in 2 cases of the 34 monopolar TURP patient (5.88%), P=.045). Conclusions: Bipolar TURP is as effective a technique as conventional TURP. However, urethral strictures significantly exist in bipolar group, even if it was done by the same surgeon.

    The Optimum Dosage of Prilocaine in Periprostatic Nerve Block During Transrectal Ultrasound Guided Prostate Biopsy: A New Approach in Dose Calculation
    (2016) Gonulalan, Umut; Kosan, Murat; Kervancioglu, Enis; Cicek, Tufan; Ozturk, Bulent; Ozkardes, Hakan
    Objective: We aimed to calculate the optimum dose of prilocaine per one mL prostate volume in periprostatic nerve block (PPNB) during transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided prostate biopsy (PBx). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the medical records of 83 patients from whom 12 cores TRUS guided PBx were obtained between years 2011 and 2013. Prostatic sizes were evaluated separately as Size 1 (anterior-posterior on the axial plane), Size 2 (transversal), and Size 3 (cranial-caudal on the sagittal plane) for all patients. The visual analog scores (VAS) of the patients during PBx, prostatic volumes, and prilocaine doses per one mL prostate were evaluated. The correlation between VAS of patients during PBx and prostatic volume, the prostatic sizes and prilocaine dosage per one mL prostate was analyzed using Cubic regression test. Results: It was found that VAS scores of patients were significantly positive correlated with prostatic volume, Size 1, 2 and 3 (p<0.05). However, there was a negative significant correlation between VAS and prilocaine dose per one mL prostate volume (r=-0.402, p<0.01). The dose of 0.1 mL prilocaine infiltration per one mL prostatic tissue in PPNB was the maximum dose that caused a mild and under annoying pain (VAS<2) in patients according to cubic regression formula. Conclusion: Prilocaine dosage, prostatic volume and prostatic sizes (especially anterior-posterior and cranial-caudal) significantly affect VAS scores during TRUS guided PBx. The pain in TRUS guided PBx should be controlled with an optimum dose of prilocaine as 0.1 mL per one mL of prostatic tissue.
