Abstract: | 42 patients with chronic urinary retention caused by BPH were treated by means of Mesh-like tubular stent placing from August 1993 to August 1994. The mesh-like tubular stent was made of nickel titanium alloy in sizes of 2.0 x 1.5 cm, 2.5 x 1.5 cm, 3.0 x 1.5 cm respectively. Under direct vision the stent was placed with the deployment tool. The desirable position of the stent is 0.3-0.5 cm proximal to the internal urethral orifice, 0.5 cm distal to the verumontanum. In 38 patients followed up for 1-6 months, 34 were succesful with an effective rate of 80%. IPSS, PUFR, RUV after 1, 3, 6 months of placement were 8.5 +/- 4.4, 6.8 +/- 3.5, 7.1 +/- 5.2; 12.5 +/- 6.0 ml/s, 14.0 +/- 5.2 ml/s, 14.4 +/- 8.1 ml/s; 43 +/- 11.5 ml, 47.4 +/- 13.3 ml, 44.5 +/- 15.7 ml respectively. Four stents were taken away transurethrally in the unsuccessful cases. The results indicat that there are no serious complications except for shorttime hematuria, fever, and bladder irritation. The success depends chiefly upon exactly meassuring the length of prostatic urethra, selecting the rational size of the stent, and correctly placing the stent. |
