Abstract:Objective: To compare the early urinary control of thulium laser enucleation of prostate (ThuLEP) vs. transurethral resection of prostate (TURP). Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 44 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) admitted to the Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital from January to December 2021. The patients were divided into TURP group (n=15) and ThuLEP group (n=29). Perioperative indicators and urinary control indicators were compared between the two groups. Results: Urination and urinary control (IPSS, QOLand ICIQ-MLUT) were significantly improved in TURP and ThuLEP groups after surgery, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The improvement of urinary continence in TURP group was better than that in ThuLEP group, and the difference was statistically significant (Z=-2.255, P=0.024) at 1st month after surgery, but no significant difference was seen at 6 month after surgery. Conclusion: TURP and ThuLEP have similar efficacy and safety. The incidence of early urinary incontinence in ThuLEP was higher than that in TURP. At 6th month postoperatively, no urinary incontinence occurred in either group.
