Filter by:The efficacy and safety of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) have been comprehensively assessed. However, HoLEP is considered as a challenging procedure with a steep learning curve. As such, HoLEP is not as yet considered the gold standard for the surgical treatment of LUTS/BPH by international clinical guidelines. The investigators aim to assess the complications and outcomes of patients treated with HoLEP by high volume surgeons, in order to provide data on the safety of the procedure and identify the profile of patients who may benefit from a dedicated clinical management to reduce the risk of post-operative complications.
The objectives of the trial are to demonstrate the safety and performance of the Zenflow Spring System in relieving the symptoms of obstructive Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
This registry study aims to collect data on efficacy and safety of different treatments of benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) and lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH-LUTS).
The aim of this study is to compare two different surgical methods for treating benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). The investigators are going to compare the risks and benefits of bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and bipolar transurethral enucleation of the prostate (BipolEP). Furthermore, the investigators are going to compare the amount of tissue resected per minute, in order to assess the efficiency of each surgical method. It is a prospective, interventional, multi-centre (2 centres total), randomized trial. Approximately 84 patients will be included
The investigators conduct this prospective study to investigate the learning curve of digital rectal examination (DRE) for prostate cancer among internship. The investigators want to know how many DRE are usually needed for internship to be performed in urological practice to obtain a stable DRE accuracy.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a very common pathology of the aging man with an incidence that rises from 40% in men aged 50 to 60 years to 90% in men over 80 years. Studies such as the MTOPS (the Medical Therapy of Prostatic Symptoms) study show that more than half of the patients recruited had an aggravation of their disease over time either by an increase in symptoms or by the appearance of complications such as acute retention of urine. For benign symptomatic prostate hypertrophy, apart from any complication, first-line treatment is now a medical treatment. For patients who respond poorly to medical treatment or who have complications related to benign prostatic hypertrophy, the treatment becomes surgical. The reference treatment is endoscopic prostate resection (TURP). It is mainly to improve the safety of hemostasis in patients older and older and at significant surgical risk that new "minimally invasive" surgical techniques have emerged. Thus, lasers have been developed and are currently used as an alternative to the TURP. Used in clinical practice since 2000, prostatic photosensitive vaporization (PVP) relies on the absorption of a 532nm (green) wavelength laser beam by the oxyhemoglobin contained in richly vascularized prostate tissue. Given the aging of the population, more and more patients are being treated with oral anticoagulants (Anti Vitamin K (AVK) or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs)). Today there are about 1.4 million people on oral anticoagulants, 40% of whom are over 80 years of age. The peri-operative management of the AVK is currently based on the recommendations published by the FHA (French Health Authority) in 2008. Concerning the perioperative management of DOACs, the perioperative haemostasis interest group (GIHP) made proposals updated in September 2015. Numerous studies published in the literature have concluded the feasibility of prostate removal surgery by PVP with greenlight laser without relay (or interruption) of AVK or DOACs because of the properties of hemostasis. But the levels of evidence for these studies remain low. No study has focused on rigorously assessing the perioperative hemorrhagic risk associated with OAC therapy in patients eligible for PVP, and this is the originality of this study. This study is a multicenter prospective randomized study whose objective is to show that the PVP performed in patients with OAC is not associated with an increase in perioperative hemorrhagic risk.
The study is a multicentric randomized control trial with 4-year follow-up comparing perioperative and postoperative outcomes for transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate(TUKEP) and transurethral resection of prostate(TURP). The investigators recruit patient with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) as the object of study. TURP is set as control group . Meanwhile TUKEP is set as test group. Six affiliated hospitals will participate in this study. Through analyzing the perioperative and postoperative data between TUKEP group and TURP group, The investigators purpose demonstrating superiority of safety, efficacy and economic benefit in TUKEP group.
This is a study protocol for the use of a novel radiopaque embolic agent in the treatment of lower urinary tract Symptoms (LUTS) with prostatic artery embolisation (PAE). This study will allow us to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this embolic in PAE along with giving us a better understanding of embolic distribution.
The efficacy and safety of the combination of tamsulosin and tadalafil in men with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia and Erectile Dysfunction: a randomized, double blinded, parallel design, active controlled, multi-center, phase 3 clinical trial
Patients presented for BPH surgery at our out patient clinic will be assessed for abnormal bleeding profile. Patients with bleeding tendency will be offered either HoLEP or Greenlight laser PVP based on prostate size cut off point of 80ml Larger prostates will be treated with HoLEP Smaller prostates will be treated with greenlight PVP
