Ejaculatory Sparing Transurethral Incision Of The Prostate (ES-TUIP) Versus Conventional TUIP

December 5, 2020 updated by: Abdelwahab Hashem, Mansoura University

In this study, Investigators planned to compare ejaculatory sparing and non-ejaculatory sparing (conventional) TUIP using both subjective and objective assessment tools for the degree of deobstruction.

Furthermore, the impact of both techniques on ejaculation and its secondary effect on orgasm perception and different domains of sexual function will be thoroughly assessed.

  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Ejaculatory sparing TUIP
The bladder neck will be incised and vaporized at the 5 or 7-o'clock position. The incision will start near the ureteral orifice and carry downward to about 0.5-1.0 cm proximal to the verumontanum
Other Names:
  • ES-TUIP
Placebo Comparator: Conventional TUIP
regular non ejaculatory sparing TUIP
the bladder neck will be incised by Collins knife at the 5 or 7-o'clock position till the verumontanum.
Other Names:
  • regular non ejaculatory sparing TUIP
