The use of vesical irrigation system dual pump Endo FMS urology in the endoscopic therapy of the vesical neoplasms.

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine whether vesical irrigation during transurethral resection of bladder tumours (TURBT) with the dual pump system for the intracavitary irrigation Endo FMS Urology is more efficient than the standard gravity technique.

Methods: One hundred patients suffering from vesical neoplasms underwent TURBT using the Endo FMS Urology (group A). They were compared to 100 patients previously (2002-2003) treated endoscopically for vesical tumours with the standard endovesical irrigation method (group B).

The use of vesical irrigation system dual pump Endo FMS urology in the endoscopic therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Objective: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) remains the reference standard treatment in the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The objective of this study was to determine whether vesical irrigation during TURP with the dual pump system Endo FMS Urology is more efficient than standard gravity irrigation.

Methods: A group of 30 patients who underwent TURP using the Endo FMS Urology was compared to a group of 30 patients treated with standard vesical irrigation.

[Several anatomo-clinical considerations on a case of renal schwannoma].

A case of schwannoma of the parenchyma of the kidney is described. It is a particular case (12 cases in the literature). The nephrectomy was the therapy.

Transurethral microwave thermotherapy in the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia.

One hundred and forty-four patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia were treated by transurethral microwave thermotherapy between January and December 1991. Before entering the study, all patients had a Boyarsky symptom score > or = 8, peak flow rate < or = 15 ml/s and postvoiding residual urine < or = 200 ml. Transurethral thermotherapy with the Prostatron (Technomed) was carried out as a single session (60 min) without any analgesia or sedation.
