Prevention of irrigant absorption during TURP: continuous low-pressure irrigation. 1978

M Reuter, and H J Reuter

Comparative studies have been carried out on bladder pressure. The pressure gradient between bladder and abdominal cavity during TURP proved to be significantly lower with continuous low-pressure irrigation than with conventional high-pressure irrigation. Absorption is reduced to a clinically insignificant rate, as shown by blood sugar determinations during TURP in 100 cases.
