Abstract

Video TUR is a new and convenient technique of transurethral surgery in which resection is performed under visual control provided by a camera and a monitor. The method involves fewer risks for the patient and less discomfort for the surgeon. The postoperative stricture rate of the urethra could be reduced from 6 to 1% by using a new double-sheath continuous flow resectoscope (Olympus).
