To share the experience of 100 cases of Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP), This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Urology, SMBBMC and Lyari General Hospital, Karachi from 1.1.13 to 30.4.15. One hundred cases were selected through purposive sampling. Patients who underwent TURP were included. Those with two life threatening co-morbidities, positive urine culture and patients on anti coagulant medications were excluded from the study. Mean age of the patients was 66±6.2 years with minimum 60 years and maximum 85 years. Six percent of the cases were residents of Iran, while 30% belonged to Baluchistan and also from remote areas of Sindh. Prostate was found hard in 6%, with immobile mucosa in 1%, tenderness in 22%, upper margin not approachable in 6% and Nodularity in 3% of the cases. Lyari General Hospital is catering the surgical needs, especially endoscopic gold standard option (TURP), of the patients not only from Lyari but also from Baluchistan and Iran along with remote and underdeveloped areas of Sindh.

Effect of melatonin on postoperative cognitive function in elderly patients submitted to transurethral resection of the prostate under spinal anesthesia.

Hospital das Clínicas, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMUSP), São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
Background: Hospitalization for Transurethral Prostate Resection (TURP) involves circadian rhythm disturbance - a possible cause of Postoperative Neurocognitive Disorder (POCD) in elderly patients. This study investigated whether melatonin ameliorated this effect.
Methods: A double-blind, randomized clinical trial used a battery of neuropsychological tests to evaluate cognitive performance of 118 patients aged ≥ 60, before TURP with spinal anesthesia, and at 21- and 180-days PO.
Oncological outcomes and prognostic implications of T1 histo-anatomic substaging in the management of high-Grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: results from a large single centre series.

Purpose: This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic value of T1 histo-anatomic substaging (T1a/T1b) for high grade (HG) non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) over a large single-centre cohort.
Materials And Methods: Patients with primary HG T1 NMIBC were identified from our Institutional database, between 2011 and 2022. Data from diagnosis to repeated transurethral resection of bladder tumour (RE-TURBT), bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) treatment and follow-up were collected.
Effect of Regional Anesthesia on Intraoperative Hyperkalemia in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: Two Case Reports.

Intraoperative hyperkalemia is particularly common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We report two cases of intraoperative hyperkalemia occurring under general anesthesia, while potassium levels remained stable with regional anesthesia alone. Case 1 involved a 69-year-old male with CKD who underwent total thyroidectomy under general anesthesia and developed intraoperative hyperkalemia, requiring glucose-insulin (GI) therapy.

Purpose: Bacteremia is a well-known complication to surgery and may result in infective endocarditis (IE). Transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) may give rise to bacteremia, but the associated risk of IE is not well described. We aimed to examine risk of infective endocarditis following TUR-P.

Department of Urology, Amsterdam UMC, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Background And Objective: Urothelial bladder cancer (UCB) care requires frequent follow-up cystoscopy and surgery. Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE), a probe-based optical technique for real-time microscopic evaluation, has shown promising accuracy for grading of UCB. We investigated the diagnostic accuracy of CLE-based assessment of the surgical radicality of the bladder resection bed (RB).
