Background: The best technique for transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) is regional anesthesia. The hypotension is the major complication following spinal anesthesia. The hemodynamic changes is less with saddle block than spinal block. Aim and Objective: To compare hemodynamic effect between the spinal block and saddle block in TURP. Patients and methods: 50 patients between 50-70 years old ASA I – II prepared for TURP, divided randomly in two groups 25 pt. in each group. Group A received spinal 10 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine (2 ml of 0.5%), were group B received saddle block 10 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine (2 ml of 0.5%). The blood pressure, oxygen saturation, heart rate measured and recorded subsequently. The hypotension treated by 100 mcg bolus of phenylephrine. Results: In our study there was statically significant difference (p < 0.05) between group A which received spinal anesthesia and group B which received saddle block in hemodynamic effect. In which the incidence of hypotension and vasopressor requirement more in group A. Conclusion: Under saddle block the TURP can safely performed with low risk of hypotension and less requirement of vasopressor.

The aim of our study to determine the role of tolvaptan in prevention of hyponatremia in transurethral resection of prostate surgery. This is randomized double-blind study conducted in 60 ASA grade status 1 and 2 patients age group between 45-80 yrs undergoing TURP under spinal anaesthesia in urology operation theatre in Mahatma Gandhi hospital Jaipur after receiving permission from hospital ethical committee. A detailed history, complete physical examination and routine investigation were done for all patients followed by informed written consent was obtained. Patients are randomly divided into 2 groups. In group A -30 patients who received orally tab tolvaptan 15 mg and group B-30 patients who received orally tab multivitamin 2 hrs before surgery after doing electrolytes of the patients in the morning. In both groups age (in yrs), wt (in kg), ASA grade, volume of irrigating fluid (in litres), volume of prostate resected (in gm) and duration of surgery (in minutes) all demographic and surgical details data were compared. Electrolytes were compared in both groups pre and post-operatively and statistical analysis was done.There was significant difference in post-operative sodium level between the two groups (A and B). The mean level of sodium significantly reduced post-operatively in group –B (control grp). The mean level of sodium significantly increased post-operatively in group –A (tolvaptan grp). We conclude single dose of tolvaptan -15 mg found to effective in prevention of hyponatremia in patients undergoing TURP.

ABSTRACTObjectives: Intrathecal fentanyl and clonidine are effective analgesics with different mechanisms of action. This study compares 25 µg of both thesedrugs given intrathecally regarding onset, quality, and duration of hyperbaric bupivacaine-induced spinal block and side effects.Methods: A total of 90 patients of ASA I and II were randomly allocated into three equal groups. Group A received 0.5 ml of 0.9% normal saline(placebo), Group B and Group C received 25 µg fentanyl and clonidine intrathecally added to 2.5 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine, respectively. Theonset and regression time of sensory and motor blocks were recorded along with hemodynamic change, side effects, pain intensity (in terms of visualanalog score (VAS), and time to first rescue analgesic.Results: Intrathecal clonidine (25 μg) significantly prolongs sensory and motor blocks, with prolonged duration of analgesia in comparison withintrathecal fentanyl (25 µg) (325±15 minutes vs. 240±7.6 minutes). VAS score was similar, but sedation was more in clonidine group.Conclusion: We conclude that low-dose intrathecal clonidine is an effective adjuvant to bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia and provides betterpostoperative analgesia in comparison with intrathecal fentanyl.Keywords: Clonidine, Fentanyl, Bupivacaine, Regional, Spinal, Postoperative pain.

We aimed to determine the usefulness of intrathecal pethidine as the sole anaesthetic for transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) while comparing the incidence of hypotension with intrathecal bupivacaine. A double-binded randomized prospective trial was conducted involving 40 patients for TURP. The patients were divided equally into two groups; group A received 2 ml 0.5% bupivacaine intrathecally and group B received 40 mg pethidine intrathecally. Changes in blood pressure and heart rate were measured over the first 30 minutes. The highest sensory block and the time to reach it were documented. The degree of motor blockade was also recorded. There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypotension. The pethidine group had significantly greater reduction in heart rate, a lower degree of motor block, shorter period before requests for postoperative analgesia but a higher incidence of sedation, nausea and vomiting. Intrathecal pethidine did not offer any advantage over intrathecal bupivacaine for TURP.

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the endoscopic versus percutaneous approach (blind) to control the obturator jerk in patients undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumors under spinal anesthesia. Materials and methods: A prospective observational study was performed in Department of Urology, Chittagong Medical College, Chittagong and some Private Hospitals (Ltd.) in Chittagong city during the period from January 2016 to June 2016. Total 100 patients were grouped into two, on alternate basis. Fifty(50) patients in group- A conducted with endoscopic infiltration with 20ml of injection 2% lignocaine at the bladder tumor base and another 50 patients in group-B, conducted with blind percutaneous technique with same drug and volume ( 20ml inj.2% lignocaine) to control obturator jerk. Severity of obturator jerk in both procedure, percentage of complete resection, ONB procedure related time, ONB procedure related complications and surgeon’s satisfaction level were recorded and compared between two approaches. Chi-square analysis was performed to compare the ease of approach and outcome of the two techniques. A value of P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The mean age of the patients were 59.44+7.681. In group-A, 50 patients were given inj. 2% lignocaine endoscopically at the bladder tumor base to control obturator jerk. Twenty five patients (50%) had no jerk, 20 patients(40%) developed mild jerk and 5 patients (10%) developed moderate jerk and no patients developed severe jerk. Second attempt was taken in moderate jerk patients (5 patients) and succeeded in 3(6%) patients. So, in this group, complete resection of bladder tumor was possible in 96%. In group B, complete resection of bladder tumor was possible in 84%. Statistical analysis was done and result is significant in case of endoscopic procedure to control obturator jerk(p<0.05). ONB Procedure related time was <20 mins. in 32(64%) patients in group-A and 45 (90%) patients in group- B. 20 mins. or more time was required for 18 (36%) patients in group-A and 5 (10%) patients in group-B. Statistical analysis was done and result is significant in percutaneous (blind) technique (p<0.05). ONB procedure related complications in group-A and Group –B were noted. Statistical analysis was done and result is insignificant (p>0.05). Surgeons satisfaction level were recorded on the basis of obturator jerk block and complete resection and which was statistically significant in favour of endoscopy group (p<0.05). Conclusion: It is concluded that endoscopic injection of 2% lignocaine into the bladder tumor base is better in case of jerk elimination and complete resection than blind percutaneous approach. Though, ONB procedure related time was significantly less in percutaneous group. Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 21, No. 2, July 2018 p.120-126

Background: Transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) is the predominant surgical procedure for benign prostatic hypertension (BPH) but is not devoid of complications like capsular perforation, drop in Hb%, drop in Na+, residual adenoma; hence endeavors are evolving to combat such complications. A newer technique transurethral enucleation and resection of prostate (TUERP) has been devised to solve these problems. This study was designed to compare the safety and the efficacy of newer technique, TUERP with widely practiced TURP Methods: This randomized controlled trial was done at BSMMU, after getting ethical approval from the ethical review committee of the institute, from January to October, 2009. A total of 60 BPH patients were purposively enrolled in this study, after obtaining informed written consent and they were randomized as control, Group A (30 patients, underwent TURP) and experimental group, Group B (30 patients, underwent TEURP).Results: The mean preoperative Hb% level of Group A was 15.1 gm% (SD ± 0.5) and perioperative Hb% level was 13.04 gm% (SD ± 6.06). There was significant difference (P <0.05). The mean preoperative Hb% of Group B was 15.2 gm% (SD ± 0.5) and perioperative Hb% was 15.2 gm% (SD ± 0.48). There was no difference (P >0.05). The mean preoperative Na + of Group A was 140 mmol/l (SD ± 4.1) and perioperative Na+ was 126 mmol/l (SD ± 6.8). There was significant difference (P<0.01). The mean preoperative Na+ of Group B was 136 mmol/l (SD ± 4) and perioperative Na+ was 136 mmol/l (SD ± 2.70). There was no difference (P >0.05).Conclusion: TUERP eliminates drop in Hb% and Na+which are usual consequences following TURP. Thus TUERP can be advocated in the treatment of BPH as it also allows completeresection down to surgical capsule.Birdem Med J 2017; 7(3): 216-220

Abstract Background Oesophageal cancer incidence has increased over the last decade in the UK, particularly in older patients. Surgery, with or without perioperative chemotherapy, remains the gold standard treatment for patients with potentially curable disease. Currently, 41% of new cases of oesophageal cancer are in patients aged over 70. However, only 10% underwent surgery compared to 25% of those aged under 70. Concerns exist that advanced age may prejudice treatment decisions. The aim of our review is to evaluate the impact of age on outcomes in those undergoing planned curative treatment for oesophageal cancer. Methods A retrospective review of patients undergoing oesophagectomy for carcinoma between 2006 to 2016 at a single institution was performed. Patients were divided into two cohorts based on age at the time of diagnosis; under 70 years (Group A) and over 70 (Group B). Patients underwent a standardised staging protocol and treatment was decided by a multi-disciplinary team. Oesophagectomy was performed using a transthoracic approach with two field lymphadenectomy and perioperative chemo (radio) therapy used in those patients with locally advanced disease who were fit enough. Results There were 555 patients in Group A and 241 in Group B. Adenocarcinoma was the prevalent histological subtype in both cohorts: 76% (423) in Group A and 68% (165) in Group B. Median age at the time of diagnosis was 62 in Group A versus 74 in Group B. In Group A, 12% (18/343) did not receive neo-adjuvant treatment for locally advanced cancer versus 47% (101/212) in Group B (P < 0.001). Median hospital stay was longer in Group B (18 v 15 days P = 0.02). There was no significant difference in hospital mortality (Group A 1% vs Group B 2.4% P = 0.37) and major complication rate (Group A 14% vs Group B 20% P = 0.31). Two-year survival was 66% (adenocarcinoma) and 78% (SCC) in Group A compared to 60% (adenocarcinoma) and 64% (SCC) in Group B. Conclusion These results demonstrate that patients over 70 can be treated successfully with minimal additional risk to morbidity and mortality. However, these patients are more likely to be denied neoadjuvant treatment which may compromise their long-term outcomes. Disclosure All authors have declared no conflicts of interest.

Abstract Background and aim Intraoperative use of a single bolus dose of tranexamic acid may not be sufficient to prevent bleeding in the early postoperative period. The present study was carried out to compare the effect of two dose regimens of tranexamic acid in reducing perioperative blood loss and the amount of allogeneic blood transfusion in transurethral resection of prostate. Design prospective, double-blinded and controlled study. Setting Ain Shams University Hospital, Patients and Methods 50 patients electively posted for transurethral resection of prostate were randomly assigned to receive a single bolus dose of tranexamic acid (10 mg/kg) (Group A), a bolus dose of tranexamic acid (10 mg/kg) followed by infusion (1 mg/kg/h) till 4 h postoperatively (Group B). Measurements Total intraoperative blood loss, amount of allogeneic blood transfusion, postoperative drain collections, and hemoglobin and hematocrit levels were recorded at different time intervals. Data obtained after comparing two groups were analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences. Results There was no statistically significant difference among patients in both groups regarding intraoperative blood loss and postoperative blood loss at 6 hrs and 48 hrs postoperatively. However the post-operative blood loss at 24 hrs was significantly higher among patients in group A than patients in group B (P-value= 0.014) . Conclusion Tranexamic acid causes more effective reduction in post-operative blood loss when used as a bolus followed by an infusion continued in the postoperative period in comparison to its use as a single intravenous bolus in transurethral resection of prostate.

Introduction and aim of the study : Spinal anaesthesia for transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) does not prevent unintended stimulation of the obturator nerve when electro resection is performed on the lateral and Postero-lateral wall of the bladder. It results in muscle contraction of the adductor muscles of the thigh, which may lead to perforation of bladder wall with the resectoscope loop. The aim of the study was to compare the outcome of obturator nerve block by inguinal and transvesical approach. Materials and Methods: A prospective experimental study was done in the department of Urology Dhaka Medical College Hospital during the period of November 2016 to April 2018. Total 60 Patients were included for the study as per inclusion and exclusion Criteria. Patients were than allocated purposively into two groups by simple random sampling. Group A consisted of 30 patients where obturator nerve block (ONB) was done by transvesical approach and Group B also consisted of 30 patients where ONB was done by inguinal approach. Results: In the present study, the baseline characteristics of the patients in Group-A and Group-B were almost similar having no statistically significant difference. Obturator jerk more frequently occurred in group-B, in 13 (56.37%) patients following TURBT compared to Group-A, where 05(16.67%) patients developed obturator jerk. The intergroup difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). In case of 26 (86.67%) patients tumour was completely resectable in group-A, while in 21 (70.00%) patients of Group- B tumour was completely resectable. This was not a statistically significant difference (P>0.05). There was no incidence of bladder wall perforation in group-A, wherears this complication occurred in 02 (06.67%) cases of Group-B (p>0.05). Mean operative time in Group-A and group-B is 50.46 (±11.64) and 59.10 (±15.83) respectively (p<0.05). Conclusion: We conclude that transvesical approach is better in case of Jerk elimination and Less Procedure related time than inguinal approach during TURBT Bangladesh Journal of Urology, Vol. 23, No. 2, July 2020 p.118-123

Background: During caesarean section hypotension due to spinal block is secondary to the sympathetic blockade and aorto-caval compression by the uterus. It can have important consequences for the mother and may affect neonatal outcome. The present study was aimed to compare intravenous bolus doses of phenylephrine and ephedrine to treat maternal hypotension during spinal block for elective caesarean section.Methods: After fulfilling the inclusion criteria, 100 parturient were randomly allocated into two groups of fifty each. For spinal anesthesia lumber puncture was done and 12.5mg, 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine was given intra-thecally. In this observational study, patients who developed hypotension under spinal anesthesia were selected for the study. According to their group, patients received either ephedrine 6mg (Group E) or phenylephrine 75µg (Group P) as vasopressor. During the study, number of vasopressor boluses, hemodynamic response and time taken to recover from hypotension was noted.Results: Ephedrine and phenylephrine were used in the mean doses of 6.72±1.97mg and 91.5±31.38µg respectively. In 88% parturient single bolus dose of ephedrine was effective in treating hypotension while phenylephrine was effective in 78% parturient. There was no significant difference observed in total number of boluses used. No significant difference was seen in mean systolic blood pressure, mean diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure over a given period of time in Group E and Group P. Mean systolic BP was less than 20% when compared to baseline in both the groups at different time intervals. In Group P the mean heart rate was significantly lower as compared to the Group E (p<0.05).Conclusions: Intravenous phenylephrine and ephedrine are both similar in performance in treating hypotension after spinal anesthesia for elective caesarean section and the hypotensive control offered is comparable.
