Intraoperative changes in blood coagulation-fibrinolysis system were evaluated in 21 patients under epidural anesthesia by thrombelastography. Ten patients received transurethral resection of prostate (TUR-P) and 11 patients received transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt). Thrombelastographic variables: reaction time (R), coagulation time (K), maximum amplitude (MA), and amplitude 60 min after MA (A 60) were measured. The coagulability was evaluated by R + K, the absolute strength of clot by MA, and fibrinolysis using MA-A60. There was no significant change of these indices in TUR-Bt group. On the other hand, in TUR-P group, R + K was significantly shortened and MA-A60 had a tendency to increase it, but MA caused no change. Resected prostatic weight correlated significantly with the decrease of MA, and had a tendency to correlate with the increase of MA-A60 in TUR-P group. Both coagulation and fibrinolysis were activated in TUR-P group. When the resected prostatic weight is large, the risk of coagulopathy may increase.

D011467 Prostate A gland in males that surrounds the neck of the URINARY BLADDER and the URETHRA. It secretes a substance that liquefies coagulated semen. It is situated in the pelvic cavity behind the lower part of the PUBIC SYMPHYSIS, above the deep layer of the triangular ligament, and rests upon the RECTUM. Prostates
D011468 Prostatectomy Complete or partial surgical removal of the prostate. Three primary approaches are commonly employed: suprapubic - removal through an incision above the pubis and through the urinary bladder; retropubic - as for suprapubic but without entering the urinary bladder; and transurethral (TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION OF PROSTATE).
