Purpose: The aim of this study is to compare the results of transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for the surgical treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) in patients with renal transplantation.
Materials And Methods: Between April 2009 and May 2016, BPH patients with renal transplants whose prostate volumes were less than 30 cm3 were treated surgically. Forty-seven patients received TURP and 32 received TUIP. The patients' age, duration of dialysis, duration between transplant and TURP/TUIP, preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine (SCr), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), maximum flow rate (Qmax) and postvoidresidual volume (PVR) were recorded. At 1-,6- and 12-month follow-up, early and long-term complications were assessed. Results were evaluated retrospectively.
Results: In both groups, SCr, PVR and IPSS decreased significantly after the operation, while Qmax increased significantly (P < .001). There was no difference between the two groups in terms of increase in Qmax and decrease in IPSS, SCr and PVR (P = .89, P = .27, P = .08, and P = .27). Among postoperative complications, urinary tract infection (UTIs) and retrograde ejaculation (RE) rates were higher in the TURP group than the TUIP group (12.7% versus 6.2% and 68.1% versus 25%,respectively), whereas urethral strictures were more prevalent in the TUIP group (12.5% versus 6.3%).
Conclusion: For the treatment of BPH in renal transplant patients with a prostate volume less than 30 cm3, bothTUIP and TURP are safe and effective.

Background: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland which surrounds the urethra. For men with BPH who are older than 50, a prostatectomy is a common surgical procedure. Open prostatectomy is still more prevalent in regions with limited access to advanced surgical procedures like transurethral resection of the prostate and robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.

Background: Small prostates (volume <30 ml) induce bladder outlet obstruction with pathophysiological changes distinct from those associated with large prostates. Treatment options often include transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) or transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Existing treatments have issues with high recurrence and complication rates.

Background: Vesicourethral anastomosis stenosis (VUAS) is a well-known complication of prostate cancer treatments, observed in up to 26% of the cases after radical prostatectomy. Conservative management, with single or even repeated transurethral dilation or endoscopic incision of the stenosis, is successful in many cases, but up to 9% of patients are destined to fail after endoscopic treatment. In these cases, a revision of the vesicourethral anastomosis is necessary and can be realized with different surgical approaches.

Introduction: In many cases of female radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, the procedure involves simultaneous removal of the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, anterior vaginal wall, and urethra. After this procedure, rare complications like vaginal dehiscence and evisceration may occur. We herein describe this article surgical technique involving preservation of the distal anterior vaginal wall to maintain pelvic floor strength and retrograde resection of the proximal anterior vaginal wall.

Treating an underactive bladder (UAB) is challenging. Previously, we introduced a more precise method of transvaginal ultrasound-guided botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection into the external urethral sphincter as a treatment option for patients with UABs. Although many patients experience good results, those with an UAB and excessive residual urine still require catheterization.
