A survey of 24 urological centres has shown a wide variation in the routine pre-operative assessment of patients being considered for prostatectomy. Imaging of the urinary tract by intravenous urography (IVU) or ultrasound (US) is performed in 21/24 centres (79%) and plain films in 16/24 (67%). Post-micturition residual volume (PMRV) is estimated quantitatively in 10/24 centers (42%). Although there is little agreement on what constitutes a significant PMRV, a large PMRV leads to increased likelihood of operation, and earlier operation. Peak urine flow rate (Q max) is measured in 19/24 centres (79%). The significance of these findings is discussed.
一项对24个泌尿外科中心的调查显示,在考虑接受前列腺切除术患者的常规术前评估方面存在很大差异。24个中心中有21个(79%)通过静脉尿路造影(IVU)或超声(US)对尿路进行成像,24个中心中有16个(67%)进行平片检查。24个中心中有10个(42%)对排尿后残余尿量(PMRV)进行了定量估计。尽管对于什么构成显著的PMRV几乎没有一致意见,但PMRV值高会增加手术的可能性,并且手术时间会更早。24个中心中有19个(79%)测量了最大尿流率(Q max)。文中讨论了这些发现的意义。
