- Abstract
A retrospective cohort of 163 male patients having either uni- (UI) or bilateral incision (BI) of the bladder neck to relieve infravesical obstruction was reviewed. Short-term results were excellent with significant improvement of flow rates. 82% (UI) and 87% (BI) of the incised patients were satisfied. Long-term results were assessed by a life-table analysis. 17% (UI) and 12% (BI) of the patients needed a reoperation during the observation period of 6 years. It is concluded that bladder neck incision is a method with few complications and favourable long-term results. Copyright © 1991 S. Karger AG, Basel
