Two cases of pelvic hematoma following prostatic urethral lift (PUL) were reported in Japan, highlighting a rare complication of this procedure.
The first case involved a 71-year-old man who experienced lower abdominal pain the day after an uneventful surgery, with a CT scan showing a manageable hematoma.
The second case was a 68-year-old man who developed a subcutaneous hematoma six days post-operation, requiring surgical removal of the pelvic hematoma.
The report emphasizes the importance of careful surgical techniques, especially in patients with narrow pelvises, to prevent such complications.
