NCT03157726

Brief Summary

The study is a multicentric randomized control trial with 4-year follow-up comparing perioperative and postoperative outcomes for transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate(TUKEP) and transurethral resection of prostate(TURP). The investigators recruit patient with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) as the object of study. TURP is set as control group . Meanwhile TUKEP is set as test group. Six affiliated hospitals will participate in this study. Through analyzing the perioperative and postoperative data between TUKEP group and TURP group, The investigators purpose demonstrating superiority of safety, efficacy and economic benefit in TUKEP group.

Study Arms (2)

TUKEP(enucleation of prostate)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients accept TUKEP (transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate). The TUKEP procedure requires the use of a resectoscope, camera system and irrigation fluid. The system consists of a generator unit and a wire loop with an electrical current running, the beak of resectoscope was used to enucleation of prostate and the bipolar loop was used to cutting and coagulation, There are many manufacturers of Bipolar TURP systems. Any bipolar plasmakinetic system approved by the CFDA (Chinese food and drug administration) may be used for the study. The bipolar plasmakinetic system was set at 160 W for cutting and 100 W for coagulation.

Procedure: Transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate

TURP(resection of prostate)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients accept TURP (transurethral resection of prostate). The TURP procedure requires the use of a resectoscope, camera system and irrigation fluid. The system consists of a generator unit and a wire loop with an electrical current running through the loop used to cut prostate tissue and cauterize. Prostate tissue is cut away in small pieces and removed at the end of the procedure using irrigation. There are many manufacturers of TURP systems. Any monopolar and bipolar loop system approved by the CFDA (Chinese food and drug administration) may be used for the study. The bipolar plasmakinetic system was set at 160 W for cutting and 100 W for coagulation.

Procedure: transurethral resection of prostate

Interventions

Transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate(PAKEP),an operation mode devised by Liu Chunxiao Team in southern medical university urology department. The theory of the operation is using transurethral resectoscope instead of the finger in the open operation, to find the surgical capsule of prostate and to peel the hyperplastic prostate gland visually in a antidromic way.

Also known as: TUKEP
TUKEP(enucleation of prostate)

Transurethral resection of prostate(TURP), a kind of mature minimally invasive surgery of prostate , taking the place of the traditional open surgery in 1930s , still is the "gold standard" operation for surgical treatment of BPH.

Also known as: TURP
TURP(resection of prostate)
