[Subjective symptoms before and after prostate surgery. The International Symptom Scoring System, I-PSS].
In this thesis are evaluated the questionnaires of the I-PSS retrieved from 415 patients (TVPE 104, TURP 272, TUIP + PRP 25 and TUIP 14) operated on the BPH at the department of Urology, FN Motol, during 1988-1993. The average value of S in the whole group of patients was 18.9 in the pre-surgery period and 6.9 after surgery. Before the surgery, the prominent difficulties were recorded in 50.8% of patients (S = 20-35) and after surgery this number fell down to 7%. Without any major difficulties (S = 0-7) were 66.3% of patients after the surgery. The average value of L before and after surgery was 4.2 and 1.6 respectively. The quality of life after the surgery was perceived by the patients more convenient than should correspond to the symptom scoring value. The best results (both the average S and L) were recorded in patients after TVPE (S 5.1 and L 1.1), followed by TURP (S 7.4 and L 1.7), than TUIP + PRP (S 8.4 and L 2.1) and only TUIP alone closed scale (S 8.9 and L 2.4). The differences of postsurgery S and L are statistically significant (p < 0.05). The comparison between the subjective better performance and the quality of life, when taken from TVPE resp. TURP point of view, does not prove to be the statistical difference. The comparison between S changes after the standard operation (TVPE and TURP) and minor prostatic surgery (TUIP + PRP and TUIP) also does not occur as statistically significant. Only the quality of life (L changes) is recorded by the patients as significantly worse after the minor prostatic surgery (p < 0.05). The pre-surgery worst perceived symptoms are: weak stream, nycturia and polakisuria (questions Nr. 5.7 and 2). After the surgery, nycturia is the leading worst symptom.
