Filter by:Patients who were using anticoagulant or antiaggregant medications for any reason and underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) or transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or open prostatectomy (OP) due to BPH will be compared with those who were not using anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication. The rates of postoperative clot retention, presence of hematuria, reoperation due to hematuria, blood transfusion and re-admissions due to hematuria in the first postoperative month will be compared.
The purpose of this study is to compare two different types of scopes that can be used for HoLEP. HoLEP is performed through the urethra using a Laser scope to remove obstructing prostate tissue. Laser scopes come in different sizes (diameters).
This trial is comparing the effects and safety in treating men with benign prostatic hyperplasia between high freqnence irreversible electroporation and trans urethral resection prostate.
This is a prospective data registry to assess the treatment outcomes and complications of different treatment approaches in our hospital clusters.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in aging men that is frequently associated with troublesome lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) which can be divided into storage phase symptoms (urinary frequency, urinary urgency, increased nocturia, urinary incontinence, etc.), voiding phase symptoms (interruption of urination, thinning of the urine line, straining to urinate, etc.), and post-void symptoms (incomplete sensation of urination, dribbling after urination, etc.).BPH is prevalent in as many as 40% of men in their fifties and 90% of men in their eighties.Yet, few effective therapiesare available for treating BPH/LUTS. Acupuncture may be an effective treatment option for BPH/LUTS.However, effects of acupuncture on BPH/LUTS remain uncertain because of the small sample sizes or other methodological limitations. The objective of this randomized,conventional electroacupuncture-controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of electroacupuncture at'four sacral points'for relieving symptoms of BPH/LUTS. The results will provide a robust conclusion with a highlevel of evidence.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether prescribing a 3-day course of antibiotics after Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) reduces the risk of urinary tract infection. The findings of this trial will have a major impact on clinical practice to either justify the prescription of antibiotics after HoLEP or give urologists more confidence in not prescribing antibiotics prophylactically after HoLEP.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate, places pressure on the urethra and causes urination and bladder problems. Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) remains the gold standard treatment in most centres for BPH. However, morbidity after TURP is high, especially bleeding requiring blood transfusion and late postoperative bleeding. Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is a safe and effective procedure which has demonstrated comparable results to TURP. HOLEP also offers patients the alternative of being treated endoscopically with minimal blood loss, short catheterization time, and decreased hospital stay. The main reason HoLEP has yet to become the new standard for treatment of symptomatic BPH is due the complexity of this procedure as compared to TURP. Furthermore, the HoLEP can be used with the MOSESTM system, a system that allows for more efficiency and ease of use of the HoLEP. Thulium fiber laser (TFL) enucleation of the prostate is an emerging technology for endoscopic prostate enucleation that is notable for its high wavelength and pulsed mode of action. Recent studies have shown TFL enucleation of the prostate to be a safe and highly efficacious treatment modality for the management of large volume (> 80 cm3) glands in BPH. Due to its novelty, further studies are needed to broaden the investigators' understanding of the TFL and comprehend the full implications and benefits of this new technology, as well its limitations. The aim of this study is to whether Thulium Fiber laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuFLEP) and Holmium laser enucleation using MOSES™ (M-HoLEP) have comparable length of hospital stay, as well as intraoperative and postoperative outcomes.
To compare between efficacy of phosphodiesterase5 inhibitors (tadalafil 5 mg) and Alpha Blockers (tamsulosin 0.4 mg) monotherapy vs combined therapy in treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Spermotrend is a natural based product manufactured by Catalysis Laboratories. Its composition contains different essential elements for spermatogenesis: selenium, zinc and fructose. In addition, it contains L-arginine, natural precursor of nitric oxide that favors vasodilation, and pygeum africanum extract with antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antiandrogenic and antiproliferative action. Its main action resides in the control of oxidative damage to the tissues of the male reproductive system, as well as the control of correct spermatogenesis. Given that sperm quality can be altered by oxidative stress and that male infertility affects more and more people, the prevention and management of this deterioration becomes increasingly important. Therefore, to evaluate Spermotrend as a new therapy for male infertility, the investigators are going to study the safety and efficacy of this treatment in this clinical trial. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS The treatment with Spermotrend improves the parameters of the spermatogenesis. GENERAL OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness and the safety level of the natural Spermotrend product in the treatment of male infertility. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES - Evaluate the increase in sperm motility and concentration. - Identify the improvement in the seminal fluid volume. - Identify the positive changes in the sperm morphology. - Determine how to maintain the semen analysis in a normal range. - Describe the adverse effects. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES - Identify the improvement in urinary symptoms related with benign prostatic hyperplasia. - Identify the improvement in varicocele.
