Transurethral resection of the prostate in the outpatient setting.
Transurethral resection of the bladder neck (8 patients) or prostate (142) was performed in the outpatient setting. Of the patients 5 required hospitalization for post-prostatectomy hemorrhage. This method has proved to be safe and cost-effective in the treatment of patients with outlet obstruction.
