Holmium Laser Enucleation of Prostate: Is novel En Bloc Enucleation Technique Better Than the Traditional 2-Lobe Technique-A Prospective Randomized Study.

Objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of the en bloc technique with the standard 2-lobe technique for holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP).

Methods: This prospective study included patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who underwent HoLEP from September 2020 to March 2022, by en bloc or 2-lobe technique. Patient demographics, prostate volume, enucleation, morcellation and operative time, and incidence of postoperative incontinence were compared between the 2 groups.

Uroflowmetric analysis and derivation of nomograms for normal paediatric Indian population between 5 to 15 years of age.

Objective: We aimed to established normal uroflowmetric values and subsequently derived nomograms of maximum flow rate (Q) and average flow rate (Q) against voided volume (VV) in children aged 5-15 years at our institute.

Methods: A total of 440 children underwent uroflowmetric evaluation with no history of urological, renal, psychiatric, or neurological disorder between 5 and 15 years of age. Each subject data regarding Q, Q, VV, time to Q, and flow time, as well as age, sex, height, and weight were recorded.
