We studied the results of new technical method, transurethral bladder neck resection, for male patients with bladder neck obstruction.
During the procedure 3 and 9 o'clock of proximal urethra were not resected in order to preserve the voiding mechanism.
The results of the above method in 8 patients were compared to the conventional method of total resection of proximal urethra performed in 11 patients.
It was revealed that the average urinary flow rate and maximal urinary flow rate were superior in the former (p<0.05). Improvement of residual urine rate also seemed better with our new method.
