The aim of this study is to compare intra and post-operative outcomes for En-Bloc HoLEP vs En-Bloc GreenLEP. METHODS: A prospective analysis of 312 consecutive patients who underwent En-Bloc enucleation at our institution, between January 2013 - March 2017, was performed (137 in En-Bloc HoLEP group vs 175 in En-bloc GreenLEP group). All procedures were performed by a large experienced single surgeon in laser surgery for BPE. Patients were followed-up at 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months and intra- and post-operative parameters as well as functional results were assessed: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), maximum flow rate (Qmax), postvoid residual urine (PVR), prostate specific antigen (PSA), mean residual prostate volume (ml). Complications were recorded according to Clavien-Dindo classification. Analyzes were carried out with the statistical software R (version 3.3.2) using Chi-square, t-Student, ANOVA, Kruskall Wallis & U-Mann-Whitney as statistical tests. RESULTS: Mean patients’ age was 66 ± 5.3 years; pre-operative PSA was 3.80 ± 1.50 vs 3.60 ± 1.40ng/ml (p=0.638), prostate volume was 80 ± 41.5 [45.0 - 119] vs 75 ± 42.3 [45.0 - 114] (p=0.351), surgical time was 47.6±21.3 vs 52.0±23.0 min (p=0.039), morcellation time was 6.9 ± 2.5 vs 6.0± 2.9 min (p=0.159), catheterization time and hospital stay were 1.27 ± 0.60 [0.75 - 1.5] vs 1.15 ± 0.65 [0.75 - 1.3] days (p=0.680) for En-Bloc HoLEP and En-Bloc GreenLEP, respectively. En-Bloc GreenLEP demonstrated a significant improved IIEF score at 1 and 3 months compared to En-Bloc HoLEP (p <0.001). En-Bloc HoLEP showed lower rates of SUI (p < 0.05) and more reduction of IPSS score at 12 months compared to GreenLEP CONCLUSIONS: Both En-Bloc HoLEP and En-Bloc GreenLEP are feasible and safe to treat patients with benign prostatic enlargement (BPE). En-Bloc HoLEP shows lower rates of temporary urinary incontinence and more reduction on IPSS; while IIEFs seems better in En-Bloc GreenLEP group.
