Modified cystoscopy-assisted laparoscopic Y-V plasty for recalcitrant bladder neck contracture.
2020
Background and aim: Recalcitrant bladder neck contracture (BNC) is a common complication after transurethral resection of the prostate. Our aim was to show the outcomes of a modified cystoscopy-assisted laparoscopic Y-V plasty for BNC treatments.Material and methods: We retrospectively evaluated a series of 27 patients who underwent a modified cystoscopy-assisted laparoscopic Y-V plasty for recalcitrant BNC from January 2017 to September 2019. Urinary flow rate, international prostate symptom score (IPSS), international index of erectile function-5 (IIEF-5) and bladder urethral examination by cystoscopy were performed preoperatively and postoperatively, respectively.Results: All patients underwent the procedure successfully and no serious complication occurred. The median surgery time was 68.6 min without massive bleeding. The median follow-up time was 14.2 months and no patients had urinary incontinence. The maximum urine flow rate 3 months after surgery was significantly higher than prior to surgery (17.7 ± 2.1 ml/s vs. 8.2 ± 1.2 ml/s, p < 0.05). The IPSS was significantly decreased compared with the preoperative score (5.7 ± 2.3 vs. 19.2 ± 1.4, p < 0.05). The cystoscopy showed a wide bladder neck and the survival bladder flap in prostate urethral 3 months postoperatively in 92.6% (25/27) patients.Conclusions: The modified cystoscopy-assisted laparoscopic Y-V plasty is a feasible and effective technique for recalcitrant BNC treatment.
