Abstract

Objective: To explore the application prospect and clinical efficacy of transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of the Giant prostatic hyperplasia.

Methods: The clinical data of 5 patients with Giant prostatic hyperplasia treated by transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation in our department from december 2021 to january 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.

Results: All 5 patients successfully completed the operation, aged 69-80 years (73.2±4.32),PSA level was 8.07~42.90ng/ml (22.81±13.97), prostate volume was 321.05-534.26g (388.34±84.26), enucleation time was 120-240 min (174±61.48), Gland processing time 40-120 min(63±32.71). There were 1 case of perforation of prostate capsule and severe hematuria,3 cases of blood transfusion. 2 cases of transient urinary incontinence were improved after 2 weeks and 4 months postoperative respectively. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS),and quality of life score (QoL) and Maximum urine flow rate(Qmax) were significantly improved compared with preoperative parameters.

Conclusion: It is safe and effective to treat GPH with plasma enucleation through urethra with skilled plasma enucleation technique.

Keywords: bipolar plasmakinetic transurethral enucleation; giant prostatic hyperplasia; elderly; benign prostatic hyperplasia.
