Details and patient eligibility

About

This study will be conducted to estimate readmission rate and reasons for readmission after all modalities of endoscopic transurethral surgeries for treatment of BOO secondary to BPH in the last 20 years.

Full description

Computerized patient information system (PIS) of Urology and Nephrology Center (UNC) and database of prostate unit of UNC will be reviewed for all preoperative, intraoperative and post discharge data. All follow up visits will be traced for outcome measurement. Patients with no hospital follow up visit will be contacted by phone and interrogated about their LUTS control state, ongoing medication and history of secondary procedures.

Enrollment: 4,000 estimated patients

Sex: Male

Ages: 40+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers
