title: Physiopathology and surgical treatment of extravasated peritoneal fluid after transurethral resection.
abstract: We present 9 cases (0.57%) of vesicoprostatic perforation during transurethral resection of 1,562 consecutive operations done during the last 3 years in our urology department. We review the symptomatology, medical and surgical treatment from the point of view of the physiopathology of the intra-abdominal extravasated fluid. A new technique for the evacuation of the extravasate is presented ( multiperforated intraperitoneal catheter) because of its speed and ease of performance.
