About this study

Official title: Ejaculatory Preserving Transurethral Resection of the Prostate.

evaluation of the impact of apical urethral mucosa sparring with the urethra around the verumontanum on the ejaculatory function and early postoperative urinary incontinence

Read the detailed description

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease in elderly men and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is still the gold standard for the treatment of BPH However, postoperative urinary incontinence (UI) and retrograde ejaculation are of the common complications and its incidence is nearly 2% of UI UI brings great suffering to patients and its unpredictability and uncertainty in the recovery period cause significant pressure to surgeons. External urethral sphincter damage is the main reason for UI after prostatectomy. The treatment of postoperative UI and post operative retrograde ejaculation has also become an important issue for many years. Along with the progress of technology, there have been various methods of transurethral resection of the prostate but no method has been found to adequately avoid the occurrence of UI and retrograde ejaculation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing transurethral resection of prostate in people with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

post operative antegrade ejaculation (time frame: within 1 month post operative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06263049, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
