Transurethral incision of prostate.
Transurethral incision of the prostate was performed in 100 males with prostates that measured under 30 g via rectal examination or transrectal ultrasound. Urodynamic measurements including uroflow rate, post-void residual, as well as physical examination have been evaluated in these patients. Eighty-five percent of these patients have been successfully treated with outpatient transurethral incision of the prostate.
