title: [Transurethral electro-resection in patients with cardiac pacemakers (author's transl)].
abstract: Transurethral electro-resection of prostate and bladder in patients with cardiac pacemakers shows no higher risk in comparison with other patients as long as pre, intra- and postsurgical monitoring is strictly performed. The monitoring of intraoperative blood-loss as well as the use of a monitor, which shows no disturbances using high-frequency-current, is essential for the intraoperative control. At the Department of Urology, University Hospital r. d. Isar, Munich, Germany, 33 patients with cardiac pacemakers underwent transurethral surgery without any complications.
