Summary

The study will be a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing prostatic urethral lift (PUL) versus transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) in benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) patients with urinary retention. The primary objective of this study is to compare the catheter-free rates of PUL vs TURP. Secondary objectives include comparison of complications rates, cost effectiveness, patient satisfactory, symptom scores, quality of life measures and urodynamic parameters.

Conditions

  • BPH With Urinary Obstruction

Interventions

DEVICE

Prostatic Urethral Lift

Prostatic urethral lift uses permanent implants to retract the prostate lobes away from the prostate urethra to allow unobstructed passage of urine. These implants are made of Nitinol, non-absorbable monofilament suture material (Poly Ethylene Terephthalate), Stainless Steel

PROCEDURE

TURP

Using monopolar or bipolar loop diathermy via cystoscopy, excess prostate tissue is resected piecemeal to remove obstruction to the prostatic urethra due to BPH
