Abstract
Two-hundred and eighty-two consecutive transurethral resections were reviewed. No postoperative death occurred. Transfusion was unnessesary. The largest prostate needed 69minutes and the resected tissues weighed 92gm. Uncomplicated cases were discharged after a week's hospital stay. Prostatic hypertrophy and related conditions are common among farmers. Transurethral resection is safe and beneficial to them.
