Abstract
Transurethral resection is now established as a good definitive alternative to open prostatectomy. Six hundred and forty-three transurethral resections were performed by myself in these five years at a hospital. Interest was focused on 547 transurethral prostatectomies. Almost all prostatectomies finished within 60 minutes. The largest prostate needed 69 minutes and the resected tissues weighed 92 gram. After experiences with 200 cases a stable state of the technique was achieved. None received pre-operative or operative blood transfusion and three received transfusion post-operatively. No death occurred. No serious complications occurred either.
