Eligible studies were identified from electronic databases （Cochrane Library, PubMed and EMBASE）. The database search, quality assessment and data extraction were performed independently by two reviewers. Efficacy （primary outcomes： maximum urinary flow rate （Qmax）, international prostate symptom score （IPSS）, postvoid residual urine （PVR） and quality of life （QoL）; secondary outcomes： operative time, hospital time and catheter removal time） and safety （complications, such as transfusion and capsular perforation） were explored by using Review Manager 5.0. Six randomized controlled trials （RCTs） and five case-controlled studies of 1398 patients met the inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis of the extractable data showed that there were no differences in I PSS, Qmax, QoL or PVR between PVP and TU RP （mean difference （MD）： prostate sizes 〈 70 ml, Qmax at 24 months, MD=0.01, P=0.97; IPSS at 12 months, MD=0.18, P=0.64; QoL at 12 months, MD=-0.00, P=0.96; PVR at 12 months, MD=0.52, P=0.43; prostate sizes 〉70 ml, Qmax at 6 months, MD=-3.46, P=0.33; IPSS at 6 months, MD=3.11, P=0o36; PVR at 6 months, MD=25.50,P=-0.39）. PVP was associated with a shorter hospital time and catheter removal time than TURP, whereas PVP resulted in a longer operative time than TURP. For prostate sizes 〈70 ml, there were fewer transfusions, capsular perforations, incidences of TUR syndrome and clot retentions following PVP compared with TURP. These results indicate that PVP is as effective and safe as TURP for BPH at the mid-term patient follow-up, in particular for prostate sizes 〈70 ml.

Material and Methods: To study of 133 patients with an ASA surgical risk score of 3 or 4, undergoing GPVP, with an analysis of perioperative outcome, IPSS, Qmax, IIEF-5 and complications during a five-year follow-up. Results: At 5 years the mean annual improvement in IPSS was stable, and at 5 years there was a 15.2 point improvement versus the preoperative score (p 0.05). The Qmax showed an improvement of 14.9 ml/sec and was maintained at five years after surgery (p 0.05). No patients were transfused or suffered urinary incontinence. 2.25% suffered major complications and there were no deaths. 3.1% of patients suffered de novo urgency. In the 5-year follow-up, five patients had to be reoperated. The quality of sexual health assessed by IIEF-5 before the procedure was scored at 14 points;the 5-year follow-up covering the preoperative period and all revisions did not show any worsening in the IIEF-5 score (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Due to its physical characteristics, in our opinion GPVP is now the treatment of choice in patients at high surgical risk. In our series, the risk of major/minor complications and transfusions was much lower than the same risks in conventional techniques. The objective results (Qmax and quality of life questionnaire) are equivalent to conventional techniques and persist over a 5-year follow-up.展开更多
