[Transurethral incision of the prostate].
Transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) is performed by a knife-shaped electrode in the folds between the lateral and middle lobe of the prostate roughly at numbers 5 and 7 of the dial from the neck of the urinary bladder in the direction towards the colliculus seminalis. In the course of five years TUIP was indicated in 87 patients--with so-called minimal benign prostatic hyperplasia (less tissue than 10 g). The operation accounted for 13.6% of operations performed on account of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Forty-four of 57 checked patients (77.2%) reported subjective improvement of complaints after TUIP and had no complaints, in five the condition was unaltered and in eight the subjective symptoms were more severe. Transurethral incision of the prostate is technically less pretentious than transurethral resection of the prostate.
