Abstract
|
|
|
This study was performed for the patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia who had underlying diseases which increase the risk of spinal or general anesthesia. Standard transurethral resections of prostate were done on patients with prostatic
hyperplasia under local anesthesia. The selection criteria were urinary retention or below 10 ml/sec of maximum folw rate, coexist with medical problems which increase the risk of spinal and general anesthesia.
Local infiltrations of 1% lidocain were done at penoscrotal junction on each side of the corpus spongiosum, the lateral portion of the prostate and the bladder neck. This anesthesia was supplemented usually by modest dose of intravenous
tranquilizers
and analgesics under the continuous monitoring by an anesthesiolotgist. The Visual Pain a'nalogue Scale(VAS) was used for the evaluation of intraoperative and postoperative pain.
The mean operating time, amount of the resected tissues and intraoperative and postoperative visual analogue scale were 50.2 min, 16 grams, 2.7 and 2.0. We thought that this type of anesthesia was a safe, simple and effective procedure.
