[Clinical analysis and management of disappointing early urination after TURP].

Objective: To explore the etiology and management of disappointing early urination in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) following transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).

Methods: The clinical data and management of 58 cases of disappointing urination within 3 months after TURP were reviewed.

Results: Of the total number of patients with disappointing early urination after TURP, 7 (12%) underwent a second operation, 6 (10%) received outpatient treatment, and the other 45 (78%) showed spontaneous improvement within 1 year with no further treatment.

Conclusion: The causes of disappointing early urination after TURP included bladder neck contracture, urethral stricture and urinary tract infection, which necessitate secondary treatment. And a greater proportion of the patients showed functional lability of the bladder detrusor muscle, which could be spontaneously improved within 1 year after TURP.
