Long-term clinical outcomes of anatomic GreenLight laser vaporization-incision technique for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Objective:To evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of anatomic GreenLight laser vaporization-incision technique for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)Methods:From January 2019 to March 2020,133 BPH patients who received anatomic GreenLight laser vaporization-incision technique at Second Affiliated Hospital of Soo-chow University were included in the present study.Three-year patient-reported clinical data and clinical characteristics after the operation were collected,including International Prostate Symptoms Score(IPSS),prostate volume(PV),max-imum flow rate(Qmax),prostate-specific antigen(PSA),postvoid residual(PVR),operative complication,etc.Results:All operations were successfully performed.IPSS score,QoL score,PVR and Qmax improved significantly after the opera-tion.PV decreased about 59.2％three months after the operation.During the long-term follow-up for 3 years,the clini-cal characteristics didn't change significantly and no patients received reoperation.The incidences of short-term postopera-tive complications were urinary tract irritation(27.1％),hematuria(11.3％),urinary retention(3.0％),etc.Only one patient experienced long-term complication of postoperative urethral stricture.Conclusion:Anatomic GreenLight laser va-porization-incision technique is safe and effective in the treatment of BPH for long-term follow-up,which is worthy of clinical promotion.
