Readmission Following Prostatic Surgery

October 20, 2023 updated by: Mansoura University

Readmission Following Endourological Prostatic Surgery for Benign Prostatic Obstruction: Review of 20 Years of Experience

This study will be conducted to estimate readmission rate and reasons for readmission after all modalities of endoscopic transurethral surgeries for treatment of BOO secondary to BPH in the last 20 years.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Computerized patient information system (PIS) of Urology and Nephrology Center (UNC) and database of prostate unit of UNC will be reviewed for all preoperative, intraoperative and post discharge data. All follow up visits will be traced for outcome measurement. Patients with no hospital follow up visit will be contacted by phone and interrogated about their LUTS control state, ongoing medication and history of secondary procedures.

Study Population

They will be the subdivided into four groups:

Group I: Patient who underwent transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) using electrical current or laser beam. Group II: Patient who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) using momopolar or bipolar current. Group III: Patient who underwent vaporization of the prostate using plasma or laser energy (GreenLight PVP and Thulium vaporization of the prostate). Group IV: Patient who underwent anatomical endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (AEEP) using Holmium, Thulium or GreenLight laser or bipolar current.
