Filter by:Holmium laser enucleation (HOLEP) has became a standard of treatment of large prostates that indicates surgery. HOLEP is widely used nowadays. Many settings are used but no optimal setting was world wide adopted. The aim of this trial is to assess the Low-power Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (LP-HoLEP)and compare to high-power (HP-HoLEP) for enucleation efficiency pertaining to the advantages of lower cost and minimal postoperative dysuria, storage symptoms, and negative sexual impact.
The study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture among men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), compared with sham electroacupuncture.
It has been demonstrated that sexual activity was common in the majority of men over 50 years old and was an important component of overall quality of life (QoL). Ejaculatory dysfunction (EjD) is the most common side effect of surgical treatment of benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). It has been considered for decades to be an inevitable consequence of restoring micturition comfort. EjD can have a substantial deleterious effect on the QoL of men with previously maintained regular sexual activity, inducing decreased orgasmic intensity and increased levels of anxiety and depression. A better understanding of the physiology of ejaculation has enabled the emergence of modified surgical techniques that aim to preserve antegrade ejaculation. Our hypothesis is that conservation of ejaculation can be achieved by modified surgical procedures without compromising functional outcomes.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common performed surgical procedures in urology. Over the past few decades there have been an increasing development of newer surgical treatment options. Additionally, the outcome parameters for BPH treatments have been standardized. While data are available for the initial pivotal studies, post-market release data are lacking. Under the umbrella of uCARE, we have started a prospective, ongoing international registry for recording demographics and outcomes for patients undergoing surgical treatments for BPH.
To demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Urocross Expander System/Retrieval Sheath and the procedure to treat patients with symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
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), 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.
Comparing the peri-operative outcomes in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who will undergo bipolar enucleation of the prostate versus thulium laser enucleation.
Lower urinary symptoms (LUTS) affect many older men and their frequency and severity increase with age. In the age group between 65 and 79 years the rate of men with moderate and severe LUTS is 20 - 25% (Hunter et al. 1994). The complaints are potentially associated with a considerable impairment of the quality of life (Trueman et al. 1999). LUTS in older men are commonly caused by a bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) secondary to benign prostatic enlargement (BPE). The histological term "benign prostatic hyperplasia" (BPH) is frequently used in literature and clinical practice as a synonym for this diagnosis. Surgical therapy of BPH has continuously evolved in recent years. One of the latest technologies for transurethral prostate desobstruction is the Aquablation therapy, first described in 2015 (AQUABEAM®, PROCEPT BioRobotics, Redwood Shores, CA, USA) (Faber et al 2015). The AQUABEAM Robotic System is the first and only image-guided, heat-free robotic therapy for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It is designed for cutting of prostate tissue during a minimally invasive surgical procedure. Once inserted via a transurethral approach and advanced through the urethra and into the prostatic urethra, the device applies an ultrasound-guided water jet that precisely ablates the prostate tissue. Aquablation therapy is unique in that it combines cystoscopic visualization, ultrasound imaging and advanced planning software to provide the surgeon with a multidimensional view of the treatment area. This enables personalized treatment planning for the patient's unique anatomy, improved decisionmaking and real-time monitoring during the procedure. This prospective single-arm investigational clinical trial aims at assessing the efficacy and safety of the new generation of the AQUABEAM Robotic System (P1G3) and the Apogee 2300 Ultrasound System and compare the percentage of patients who are discharged the day of the surgery among different groups of BPH patients who undergo aquablation using the third generation of the AQUABEAM Robotic System.
Lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are the most common urological problem among men. monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), in which the enlarged prostate tissue is resected piece by piece using a monopolar electrode, has been the gold standard since the 1970s. It can substantially improve the maximal flow rate (Qmax), urinary symptoms (International Prostate Symptom Score, IPSS), and health-related quality of life (QOL), with long-term efficacy compared to medications or other minimally invasive treatments.4 5 However, monopolar TURP is a risky procedure because of the likelihood of severe complications such as massive bleeding or transurethral resection (TUR) syndrome.6 Therefore, it is of paramount importance to develop minimally invasive surgical techniques with outcomes similar to those of monopolar TURP, but with fewer side effects. Therefore, new energy system with different surgical methods developed after 2000s. Among all, Enucleation methods was proved to have better Qmax and IPSS after surgery than vaporization and resection methods. However, the risk of short-term transient incontinence was higher in enucleation than in resection methods. Hence modified methods such as upside down, apical preservation methods, defining the limits of dissection proximal to external sphincter prior to enucleation of prostate were developed in order to reduce transient incontinence. Besides, the necessity of preoperative urodynamic study and biofeedback training, investigate the risk factors of transient incontinence are important issues. The study using prospective cohort design recruit 300 BPH patient receiving enucleation methods. To investigate the risk factors of transient incontinence and establish model to predict the incontinence. Besides we will evaluate different surgical methods and treatment methods to improve transient incontinence and the long-term results of different enucleation methods.
