主 题：LUTS Laser Photovaporization Prostate Burkina Faso
摘 要：The treatment of prostatic tumour-related lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) uses a varied therapeutic arsenal. In our country, the treatment is dominated by open surgery. Laser treatment is becoming an efficient alternative to trans-urethral prostatic resection or prostatic adenomectomy. We report our experience with the results of Thulium laser photovaporization in the treatment of prostatic tumour-related LUTS. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted between November 2018 and August 2019 at the Saint Camille hospital of Ouagadougou. The inclusion criteria were the presence of LUTS related to a prostatic tumour with an operative indication. Results: 29 patients were treated with Thulium laser prostatic photovaporization. The average age of patients was 72.58 ± 25.34 years (54 - 84 years). The average vaporization duration was 71.24 ± 21.65 minutes (15 - 210 minutes) for an average prostatic volume of 80.97 ml. The average duration of hospitalization for patients was 1.93 days (1 - 5 days). The average bladder sounding duration was 1.68 days (1 - 4 days). A capsular perforation, a sphincter lesion and urinary retention after removal of the catheter were the complications. Conclusion: Laser photovaporization is a newly used method at the Saint Camille Hospital. The benefit is the reduction of the risk of bleeding, the short duration of hospital stay and bladder sounding. Photovaporization deserves to be popularized in our daily practices.
