Item Surgical Treatment Options for High Risk Patients with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia(2015) Hasirci, Eray; Dirim, Ayhan; Ozkardes, HakanLower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are a complex symptoms that almost every man will somehow experience in some part of his life. Today, treatment of BPH can be successfully achieved in most of the cases. However, surgical therapies may become inevitable in a group of non-complient patients or in those who have failed medical therapy. The increasing incidence of systemic diseases with age may cause difficulty in decision making for surgey in high-risk patients. In this review, different treatment options such as bipolar resection, laser prostatectomy, microwave thermotherapy, ethanol ablation and radiofrequency ablation in addition to conventional transurethral resection of prostate are compared in high risk patients with BPH. Although treatment options appear to achieve comparable outcome, differences between methods are hidden in side the effects. Choosing the most appropriate method for a particular high-risk case should be based on surgeon's experience, possible side effects of the procedure and severity of comorbidities.Item Comparison of Ho:Yag laser and pneumatic lithotripsy combined with transurethral prostatectomy in high burden bladder stones with benign prostatic hyperplasia(2016) Goren, Mehemet Resit; Ercil, Hakan; Altunkol, Adem; Alma, Ergun; Sener, Nevzat Can; Kuyucu, Faruk; Karakoyunlu, Ahmet Nihat; Vuruskan, Ediz; Ortoglu, Ferhat; Gurbuz, Zafer Gokhan; 0000-0002-2001-1386; 25937584; 2-s2.0-84928795122; Y-6143-2019Objectives: To compare the efficacy and reliability of Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy (FILL) and pneumatic lithotripsy (PL) in the treatment of bladder stones in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and stones >= 20 mm who were transurethrally treated in the same surgical session. Methods: We studied the data of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and >= 20 mm bladder stones who were treated with transurethral resection of the prostate and cystolithotripsy in the same session, obtained between January 2010 and February 2014 from three urology clinics. All patients underwent bipolar plasmakinetic (PK) transurethral resection of the prostate. For treatment of the bladder stone, either HLL or PL was applied. A total of 62 patients were divided into two groups: PK-PL (Group 1, n = 29) and PK-HLL (Group 2, n = 33). The data of both groups were analyzed for stone dimensions, stone fragmentation time, total operating time, hospitalization duration, prostate dimensions, success rates, and complications. Results: Group 1 included 29 patients with a mean age of 70 +/- 7.6 (range, 57-85) years, whereas Group 2 included 33 patients with a mean age of 67.5 +/- 10.5 (range, 45-84) years. In Group 1, five patients had mucosa injury, one patient had residual stone, and one patient had bladder perforation. In Group 2, three patients had mucosa injury, three patients had postoperative fever, and one patient had residual stone. Total operation time and stone fragmentation time were significantly lower in Group 2(p < 0.05). The remaining analyzed data were similar (p > 0.05). Conclusion: PK-HLL using a single shaft without the need for repeated access has the advantages of shorter fragmentation and operatidn time. Copyright (C) 2015, Asian Surgical Association.

Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 22 patients treated with PAE from May 2015 to June 2017. Patients with Charlson comorbidity index >= 2, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) >12, prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels <4 ng/mL or between 4 and 10 ng/mL with negative prostate biopsy and total prostate volume (TPV) >90 cm(3) were included. Total PSA, maximum flow rate (Q(max)), TPV, IPSS, post-voiding residual (PVR) values were recorded in all patients in the urology clinic before PAE and at 3 and 6 months after PAE. Results: The average patient age was 73.86 +/- 6.25 years and operative time was 80 minutes (range, 60-120 min). Pre-PAE and 6-month post-PAE values were: IPSS: 25.18 +/- 6.75 an d 11.27 +/- 3.29 (p<0.05), Q(max): 8.31 +/- 3.12 and 17.22 +/- 3.23 (p<0.05), PVR: 87.9 +/- 19.25 and 25.86 +/- 7.72 (p<0.05), TPV: 134.45 +/- 57.56 and 86 +/- 15.4 (p<0.05), and PSA: 3.89 +/- 1.26 and 2.11 +/- 1.06 (p<0.05). Embolization was performed unilaterally due to atherosclerosis and strictures in the internal iliac artery branches in 2 patients. After the procedure, 2 patients experienced transient hematuria which did not require bladder irrigation, 1 patient had acute urinary retention due to dysuria, and 1 patient had transient hematospermia. Conclusion: PAE may be an alternative treatment method in BPH patients with high comorbidity.
