Comparative Results of Transurethral Incision with Transurethral Resection of The Prostate in Renal Transplant Recipients with Benign Prostate Hyperplasia

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.
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 patient's 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.
In both groups, SCr, PVR and IPSS decreased significantly after the operation, while Qmax increased significantly (P For the treatment of BPH in renal transplant patients with a prostate volume less than 30 cm3, both
TUIP and TURP are safe and effective.
