Therapeutic efficacy of the combination of two surgical procedures with tamsulosin in treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia complicated with bladder stones
Abstract
Purpose: To compare the efficacies of two surgical methods combined with tamsulosin in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) complicated with bladder stones.
Methods: A total of 86 patients with BPH complicated with bladder stones and admitted to The People’s Hospital of Dingzhou, Hebei, from October 2021 to October 2022 were selected as subjects. The patients were equally divided into groups A and B (n = 43). Patients in group A were treated with transurethral vaporization and electro-resection of the prostate (TURP) + percutaneous nephroscopic lithotripsy (PCNL), while patients in group B were treated with TURP + holmium laser lithotripsy (HLL). Baseline clinical information, curative effect, surgery-related indicators, clinical symptoms, and recurrence were compared between the two groups of patients.
Results: At 4 weeks post-surgery, Qmax was significantly higher in group B than in group A, while IPSS score, RUV, and prostate volume were significantly lower in group B than in group A (p ˂ 0.05). The levels of physiological state, psychological state, social functionality and level of subjective judgment were higher in group B than in group A (p ˂ 0.05). The incidence of complications in group A was 11.63 %, with a recurrence rate of 6.98 %, while the corresponding values for group B were 13.95 and 4.65 %, respectively (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: The effect of TURP + HLL surgery on patients with BPH complicated with bladder stones is significantly better than that of TURP + PCNL surgery. The former also reduces clinical symptoms while improving the quality of life of patients.
