Abstract

Transurethral resection is regarded as the treatment of choice for relief of outflow obstruction due to benign prostatic enlargement but transurethral incision of the prostate is an alternative new procedure if the gland is small. This procedure was performed to 9 patients and 8 of them improved. Indication and postoperative complications are given and in conclusion we suggest that transurethral incision of the prostate is an operation of choice in patients with a prostate 20 G. Or less.
