Results:The voiding symptom score, maximum urinary flow rate and residual urine volume were all significantly improved after operation. No urinary incontinence and urine leakage occurred. Conclusions:Transurethral resection of bladder neck is a good choice in female patients with bladder neck obstruction and has less complications.
