What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ejaculatory sparing TUIPProcedure or surgery

    Also called ES-TUIP

    The bladder neck will be incised and vaporized at the 5 or 7-o'clock position. The incision will start near the ureteral orifice and carry downward to about 0.5-1.0 cm proximal to the verumontanum

  • Conventional TUIPProcedure or surgery

    Also called regular non ejaculatory sparing TUIP

    the bladder neck will be incised by Collins knife at the 5 or 7-o'clock position till the verumontanum.
