[The TUR-syndrome and its importance to the anesthetist (author's transl)].
The so called TUR-syndrome is even today not to be underestimated a complication of the transurethral prostatectomy. In a retrospective study covering a time of three years and dealing only with transurethral prostatectomies under spinal anesthesia the frequency and degree of severity of the TUR-syndrome, the correlation between the early symptoms and the incidence and between the length of resection and the degree of severity of the syndrome were investigated. Furthermore the possibilities of prophylaxis and optimal therapy were inquired and recommendations were given for both of them. Finally it was pointed out, that since the first reports on the TUR-syndrome no really new aspects were gained in prophylaxis and therapy.
