Abstrakt: Purpose: Open simple prostatectomy (OSP) has been a cornerstone in treating large prostate volumes (> 80 ml) in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). With evolving minimally invasive procedures like minimally invasive simple prostatectomy (MISP) and laser enucleation, the role of OSP needs contemporary evaluation. This way, we assessed the efficacy and safety of OSP to understand its current standing in the treatment of BPH, especially in comparison with newer surgical modalities.
Methods: A comprehensive search of MEDLINE, Cochrane and EMBASE was conducted to include randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing OSP with other treatments for BPH from 1993 to 2023. A total of 10 RCTs were included in the meta-analysis. Data on various outcomes including IPSS, Qmax, PVR, quality of life, perioperative factors, and postoperative complications were analysed.
Results: Our meta-analysis, covering 557 patients, confirms OSP's significant improvement in voiding symptoms and objective voiding metrics. However, it also reveals a higher incidence of postoperative complications, such as bleeding and transfusion requirements. The study found moderate to high heterogeneity in perioperative outcomes, indicating variations in surgical techniques and postoperative care. OSP remains a reliable option with an easily accessible and effective approach for managing large prostates, despite advancements in minimally invasive surgeries.
Conclusion: OSP continues to be a relevant surgical option for BPH in large prostates, offering significant symptom relief. However, the associated higher morbidity warrants careful patient selection and highlights the need for continued research into optimizing surgical techniques and improving outcomes.
