Abstract

PURPOSE: To report the short-term outcome of transurethral bladder neck incision with 2-micron continuous wave laser (RevoLix) in the management of bladder outlet stricture in women. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a prospective study, between January 2011 and February 2012, a total of 14 patients with the complaint of difficulty in voiding underwent transurethral bladder neck incision with 2-micron 120-W continuous wave laser (RevoLix) using low energy setting (24 W). Pre-operative investigations included international prostate symptom score (IPSS) and quality of life index evaluation, multi-channel urodynamic study, and urethrocystoscopy. Postoperative clinical and urodynamic improvement were compared with the pre-operative data. RESULTS: Of 14 patients, 4 and 10 subjects suffered from chronic urinary retention and difficulty in voiding, respectively. The mean age of the patients was 55. 1 years (range, 40 to 67 years). Mean operation time and postoperative follow-up period were 23. 8 minutes (range, 15 to 30 minutes) and 10. 2 months (range, 6 to 18 months), respectively. Median IPSS improved significantly from 28 points at baseline to 11 points postoperatively (P =. 005). Median quality of life score also improved from 4. 2 points to 1. 5 points (P =. 005). None of the patients needed re-operation. Median post void residual urine decreased significantly after the procedure (101 mL versus 17 mL; P =. 003). No significant complications and de-novo incontinence were noted in this study. CONCLUSION: Transurethral bladder neck incision with 2-micron continuous wave laser (RevoLix) may be used safely in the management of bladder outlet stricture in women with satisfactory short-term clinical outcomes.
