Brief Summary:
The study aims to evaluate the role of TRUS in improving the efficacy and safety of endoscopic enucleation of prostate and TURP.
Detailed Description:
Standard TURP is an established procedure for managing BPH but has limitations, including the risk of incomplete adenoma removal and complications such as bleeding. Research on transurethral enucleation techniques has demonstrated potential for improved outcomes, especially in larger prostates. However, challenges persist in achieving precise resection boundaries and minimizing intraoperative risks.
TRUS, widely utilized for prostate biopsy and volume assessment, has recently gained attention for its intraoperative applications. Studies show that real-time TRUS provides accurate imaging of prostate anatomy and resection planes, helping surgeons better differentiate adenomatous tissue from surrounding structures. This enhances surgical precision, reduces intraoperative bleeding, and minimizes residual tissue, leading to better outcomes in procedures like TURP and enucleation.
Current TURP and enucleation approaches depend heavily on endoscopic visual guidance, which, despite significant advancements, can lead to residual tissue, excessive bleeding, and prolonged recovery. While enucleation techniques have addressed some of these challenges, they remain less accessible due to high costs and steep learning curves, making them unsuitable for all healthcare settings.
Integrating TRUS into TURP or enucleation offers the potential to address these limitations by enhancing tissue differentiation and guiding precise resection. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of TRUS in reducing complications, achieving complete tissue removal, and improving patient recovery outcomes, potentially paving the way for its routine adoption in BPH surgery.
