The authors present modified Denis's technique for hemostasis in 20 suprapubic prostatectomy. The technique is based on the separation between the bladder and the prostatic fossa with a temporary purse-string suture around the bladder neck. The vacuum of the prostatic fossa leads to the retraction and hemostatis. This technique is very effective on intra and post operative hemorrhage, so economy of irrigating fluid; then easier post operative care.
