[Water-electrolyte homeostasis and hemostasis system after transurethral resection of the prostate].

Changes in coagulogram and water-electrolyte homeostasis were studied in 89 patients surgically treated for prostatic adenoma (TUR). The patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (n=21) was operated with use of distilled water, group 2--with 5% glucose solution. The following examinations were made in all the patients: extended coagulogram, total blood count, concentration of electrolytes, creatinin, plasma urea and glucose, osmolality measurements. These were made thrice: before the operation, on postoperative day 1, postoperative day 3. Postoperative changes of hemostasis and water-electrolyte homeostasis of plasma were less significant in group 2. The risk of postoperative hemorrhage is higher in patients of group 1.
