Abstract | Monopolar transurethral resection of prostate has been the preferred surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Even in modern series there are significant risks such as haemorrhage requiring transfusion and TUR syndrome, although their incidence is lower than previously. Over the last decade or so newer technologies have emerged that have proven to be at least equivalent to monopolar TURP. Bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate in normal saline is a potentially safer option to monopolar resection but with equivalent efficacy in the medium term. This is supported by 2 recent meta-analyses. This review describes the technology, efficacy and safety profile of bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate. |
