Background: Transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) is considered as the gold standard surgical treatment for Benign prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). Among many post TURP complications, urethral stricture is one of the most dreaded urological complications, which may result in lifelong misery. The present study aimed to report the outcomes of Otis urethrotomy to prevent urethral stricture before TURP.Method: This was a comparative study between two equal groups of 100 patients who met inclusion criteria. Study conducted in the department of surgery, Urology unit, Nepalgunj Medical College from 2014 May to 2016 April. In group A, included all the patients underwent TURP without Otis urethrotomy and in group B , included all patients underwent TURP after doing Otis Urethrotomy. The patients were evaluated for evidence of urethral stricture formation.Result: In Group A, 20 patients out of 100(20%) developed urethral stricture whereas in Group B, 8 patients out of 100(8%) developed urethral stricture .The rate of Urethral Stricture in Group A is significantly more than in Group B (p<0.05).Conclusion: The incidence of urethral stricture formation can be significantly reduced by doing Otis urethrotomy before TURP than TURP alone.JNGMC Vol. 14 No. 1 July 2016, Page: 5-7

Objective: To compare the clean intermittent self-catheterization (CISC) with continuous indwelling catheterization (CIDC) in relieving acute urinary retention (AUR) due to benign enlargement of prostate (BEP). Materials and Methods :A total 60 patients attending in urology department of Dhaka Medical college hospital were included according to inclusion criteria ,Patients were randomized by lottery into two groups namely group –A and group –B for CISC and IDC drainage respectively . Thus total 60 patients 30 in each group completed study. Results : Most men can safely be managed as out-patients after AUR due to BPH. The degree of mucosal congestion and inflammation within the bladder was found to be lower in those using CISC and the bladder capacity in these patients was also found higher.Patients with an IDC had a high incidence of UTIs then that of patients with CISC. During the period of catheterization the incidence of UTI was 43.3% in group B in comparison to 40% in group A; before TURP 36% in group B in comparison to 10% incidence in group A.According to patient’s opinion CISC is better than IDC in the management of AUR. Experiencing bladder spasm, reporting blood in urine, management difficulties, incidence and severity of pain were less in CISC group, and the method of CISC was well accepted by patients as well as their family members. Conclusion: From the current study it may be suggested that CISC is better technique for management of AUR patient due to BPH than IDC. It can also be very helpful when surgery must be delayed or avoided due to any reasons in this group of patients. Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 21, No. 2, July 2018 p.105-110

Pathological changes in the prostate gland occur commonly with advancing age including inflammation, atrophy, hyperplasia and carcinoma and a change in volume is also evident. Estimation of volume of prostate may be useful in a variety of clinical settings. A cross-sectional descriptive study was designed to see the changes in volume of the prostate with advancing age and done in the Department of Anatomy, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka from August 2006 to June 2007. The study was performed on 70 post-mortem human prostates collected from the unclaimed dead bodies that were under examination in the Department of Forensic Medicine, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka. The samples were divided into three age groups; group A (10-20 years), group B (21-40 years) and group C (41-70 years). Volume of the sample was measured by using the ellipsoid formula. The mean ± SD volume of prostate was 7.68 ± 3.64 cm3 in group A, 10.61 ± 3.99 cm3 in group B and 15.40 ± 6.31 cm3 in group C. Mean difference in volume between group A and group C, group B and group C were statistically significant (p<0.001). Statistically significant positive correlation was found between age and volume of prostate (r = + 0.579, p < 0.001). Key Words: Prostate; volume; Bangladeshi. DOI: 10.3329/imcj.v4i2.6501Ibrahim Med.

The aim of our study to determine the role of tolvaptan in prevention of hyponatremia in transurethral resection of prostate surgery. This is randomized double-blind study conducted in 60 ASA grade status 1 and 2 patients age group between 45-80 yrs undergoing TURP under spinal anaesthesia in urology operation theatre in Mahatma Gandhi hospital Jaipur after receiving permission from hospital ethical committee. A detailed history, complete physical examination and routine investigation were done for all patients followed by informed written consent was obtained. Patients are randomly divided into 2 groups. In group A -30 patients who received orally tab tolvaptan 15 mg and group B-30 patients who received orally tab multivitamin 2 hrs before surgery after doing electrolytes of the patients in the morning. In both groups age (in yrs), wt (in kg), ASA grade, volume of irrigating fluid (in litres), volume of prostate resected (in gm) and duration of surgery (in minutes) all demographic and surgical details data were compared. Electrolytes were compared in both groups pre and post-operatively and statistical analysis was done.There was significant difference in post-operative sodium level between the two groups (A and B). The mean level of sodium significantly reduced post-operatively in group –B (control grp). The mean level of sodium significantly increased post-operatively in group –A (tolvaptan grp). We conclude single dose of tolvaptan -15 mg found to effective in prevention of hyponatremia in patients undergoing TURP.

Background: The best technique for transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) is regional anesthesia. The hypotension is the major complication following spinal anesthesia. The hemodynamic changes is less with saddle block than spinal block. Aim and Objective: To compare hemodynamic effect between the spinal block and saddle block in TURP. Patients and methods: 50 patients between 50-70 years old ASA I – II prepared for TURP, divided randomly in two groups 25 pt. in each group. Group A received spinal 10 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine (2 ml of 0.5%), were group B received saddle block 10 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine (2 ml of 0.5%). The blood pressure, oxygen saturation, heart rate measured and recorded subsequently. The hypotension treated by 100 mcg bolus of phenylephrine. Results: In our study there was statically significant difference (p < 0.05) between group A which received spinal anesthesia and group B which received saddle block in hemodynamic effect. In which the incidence of hypotension and vasopressor requirement more in group A. Conclusion: Under saddle block the TURP can safely performed with low risk of hypotension and less requirement of vasopressor.

Aim. To assess the rate and reasons for urological complications of subtotal transurethral resection of prostate performed prior to high-intensity focused ultrasound. Methods. The study included 101 patients with localized prostate cancer treated by high-intensity focused ultrasound. Two groups of patients were allocated. Patients, who did not undergo transurethral resection of prostate prior to high-intensity focused ultrasound, were included in group 1 (21 patients). Second group included patients in whom subtotal transurethral resection of prostate was performed prior to high-intensity focused ultrasound to decrease anteroposterior diameter of the prostate and urethral canal compression. The impact of treatment tactics on complications rate was defined by factor analysis. Results. Early post-surgical complications were rare, complications mostly occurred at late period. The most frequent, severe and poorly controlled complications included urinary incontinence [58 (57.8%) patients] and urethral stricture [30 (29.7%) patients]. Most of complications were registered in second group of patients compared to the first: first group - in 10 (12.5%) of cases, second group - in 77 (95.0%) of cases. Urinary incontinence was observed in 7 (33.3%) patients and urethral stricture - in 4 (19%) of patients in the first group; in 51 (63.7%) and 26 (32.5%) patients in the second group respectively; the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion. Comparative analysis of different approaches to treatment of localized prostate cancer using high-intensity focused ultrasound revealed that subtotal transurethral resection of prostate performed prior to high-intensity focused ultrasound significantly increases the risk for developing urinary incontinence and urethral strictures.

Abstract Background and aim Intraoperative use of a single bolus dose of tranexamic acid may not be sufficient to prevent bleeding in the early postoperative period. The present study was carried out to compare the effect of two dose regimens of tranexamic acid in reducing perioperative blood loss and the amount of allogeneic blood transfusion in transurethral resection of prostate. Design prospective, double-blinded and controlled study. Setting Ain Shams University Hospital, Patients and Methods 50 patients electively posted for transurethral resection of prostate were randomly assigned to receive a single bolus dose of tranexamic acid (10 mg/kg) (Group A), a bolus dose of tranexamic acid (10 mg/kg) followed by infusion (1 mg/kg/h) till 4 h postoperatively (Group B). Measurements Total intraoperative blood loss, amount of allogeneic blood transfusion, postoperative drain collections, and hemoglobin and hematocrit levels were recorded at different time intervals. Data obtained after comparing two groups were analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences. Results There was no statistically significant difference among patients in both groups regarding intraoperative blood loss and postoperative blood loss at 6 hrs and 48 hrs postoperatively. However the post-operative blood loss at 24 hrs was significantly higher among patients in group A than patients in group B (P-value= 0.014) . Conclusion Tranexamic acid causes more effective reduction in post-operative blood loss when used as a bolus followed by an infusion continued in the postoperative period in comparison to its use as a single intravenous bolus in transurethral resection of prostate.

Background: Osteoarthritis of knee joint is one of the most common problem which cause pain, loss of function even joint disability and increases misery and morbidity in old age. Now a day’s intra-articular injection of single Hyaluronic acid or corticosteroids (Methylprednisolone) are using for knee osteoarthritis cases. But the combined therapy by injection of both Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone are not so much practiced and still under debate. Objectives: To compare the efficacy of intra-articular injection of combined Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone with single Hyaluronic acid alone. Methods: A prospective, comparative study was done in Northern International Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, during May 2017 to April 2018 at Out Patient Department with 80 patients (132 knees). Patients were randomized into two groups: Group-A with 40 patients with 15 unilateral and 25 bilateral knee cases (65 knees) were treated with combined Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone and Group-B with 40 patients with13 unilateral and 27 bilateral knee cases (67 knees) were infiltrated with single Hyaluronic acid. Results were evaluated with Knee Society Score (KSS) and Visual analogue score (VAS) at the 1st week, 1st month and 3rd month after injection. Result: In both Group (A and B) patients of age 61–70 years were highest, 50% and 45% respectively. Male and female ratio was 1:2.2. At the 1st week KSS for pain in Group-A (mean 65.6) was better than Group-B (mean 57.4). At the 1st month mean pain scores (Group-A 72.4, Group-B 64.4) and the 3rd month (Group-A 81.4, Group-B 75.6) and mean function scores at 1st week (Group-A 61.3, Group-B 49.6)), 1st month (Group-A65.1, Group-B 53.6) and 3rd month (Group-A68.4, Group-B 59.4). The KSS for pain and function improved in combination therapy group.VAS decreased in both groups. Conclusion: As combination therapy by Hyaluronic acid and Methyl prednisolone showed better efficacy than single Hyaluronic acid. Therefore, combination of these two drugs in a single vial can be used as an effective and easy nonoperative treatment of knee osteoarthritis.

Background: Prevalence of the episiotomy varies around the world depending on whether it is used as a routine or a restricted procedure. The rates are still higher in developing countries, like ours, since the use of restricted episiotomy is not being practiced widely in primigravidas. Methods: In our randomized comparative study of 222 women who were admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, SMS Medical College Jaipur, the enrolled women were divided into 2 groups. In Group-A: Vicrylrapide (polygalactin-910) suture material was used in 111 patients and in Group-B chromic catgut suture material was used in another 111 patients, for repair of episiotomies. Results: In our present study in vicryl rapide group at 24-48 hrs pain was present in 49.55% of patients, redness was found in 8.10% of patients, swelling was found in 3.60% patients and analgesic used by 72.97% of patients. In chromic group at 24-48 hrs pain was present in 69.36% of patients, redness was found in 21.62%, swelling was found in 7.20% and analgesic was used by 89.18% of patients. Conclusion: Our study recommends use of vicryl rapide for episiotomy repair in the care of parturient women. Keywords: Complication, Chromic Catgut, Vicryl Rapide, Episiotomy

Background: Hypospadias is the most common congenital malformation of the penis, affecting about 4-6 males per 1000 male births, and ranging in severity from a urethral meatus that is slightly off-center to a meatus in the perineal area, The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the application of fibrin sealant over the suture lines of neo-urethra reduces complications and improve overall outcome in children hypospadias repair.1,2 Methods: It was a prospective comparative study conducted in a tertiary care center (Department of pediatric surgery - Menoufia University), we included the patients age more than 6 months and less than 4 years presented with hypospadias to our department in this study. A total 30 patients of coronal, sub coronal, mid shaft hypospadias and distal hypospadias were studied and were divided into two groups, group (A) 15 cases and group (B) 15 cases. All patients underwent a tabularized incised plate (TIP) repair with a Dartos vascularized pedicle flap to cover the neo-urethra, In group (B) a thin layer of fibrin sealant applied over the suture line of neo-urethra but no sealant was used in group (A).Results: Postoperative surgical complications: urethra cutaneous fistula, flap dehiscence, flap necrosis and urethral stricture were recorded. Urethrocutaneous fistula flap dehiscence and flap necrosis were lower in group (B) patients. There was no significant difference in postoperative urethral stricture between two groups. Conclusions: Use of fibrin sealant in hypospadias repair is safe and can reduce complications.
