Lao Wang is 85 years old this year, his family lives in Xianyang, and recently he has a sad matter - the urine cannot come out.
Go to Xianyang Central Hospital for a check-up, "Oh my God! The doctor exclaimed. It turned out to be a case of "super prostatic hyperplasia", with a maximum diameter of nearly 10 cm (normally 4 cm× 3 cm× 2 cm, of which the maximum diameter was only 4 cm).
"Teacher, people's prostates are as big as a chestnut, and yours is now as big as an apple!" In order for Lao Wang and his family to understand clearly, the doctor pointed to the examination sheet and explained it to them.
"Alas! So what can be done about this? Can taking medicine work? ”
"In this case, the effect of drug treatment is not ideal, you can do 'superior pubic cystostomy', that is, to give an eye to the stomach, insert the urinary catheter into the bladder, but in the future to regularly replace the new urinary tube, urine bag."
Lao Wang thought to himself that this was not okay, I still wanted to pee normally. "So what else can be done?"
"Then all that's left is surgery!" It is transurethral minimally invasive prostate plasma resection! ”

But how can this surgery be done? Although it is a minimally invasive operation, but the doctor also has to face a lot of problems, in short, the patient is old and the physical tolerance is poor, the cardiopulmonary function is not good, and the extra-large prostate requires a longer operation time, and these problems are intertwined to increase the difficulty and risk of surgery.
However, since Lao Wang was admitted to the urology ward, as soon as he saw the doctor enter the door, he expressed a strong willingness to operate and was unwilling to wear a urine bag.
Li Nan, deputy director of urology, quickly found the hospital leaders to report the matter, and after receiving support, he quickly invited experts from the cardiovascular center, respiratory medicine, anesthesia department and other departments to consult with Lao Wang, and then the preoperative evaluation, surgical plan and sudden disease disposal plan were carried out smoothly. Of course, Lao Wang and his family also fully understood the risks of surgery and signed an informed consent form for surgery.
On the day of the operation, under the close cooperation between the anesthesiology department and the operating room, Du Quan, deputy chief physician of the prostate andrology professional group of the Urology Department, performed transurethral prostate plasma resection for the patient Lao Wang, and successfully removed the prostatic hyperplasia part within more than 2 hours, weighing about 200g after surgery.

Now Lao Wang felt an unprecedented smoothness, and said bluntly, "After so many years, I have never peed so painfully!" The obvious improvement in the quality of life has made the elderly praise the superb technology of the Department of Urology of Xianyang Central Hospital, and said that they will introduce more old guys with difficulty urinating to come to the doctor.

It is understood that at the same time that Lao Wang was hospitalized, an 80-year-old man in Xunyi County also relieved the super prostatic hyperplasia crisis at the Urology Department of the Central Hospital, and the treatment method was still a commendable "prostate plasma resection".
Li Nan, director of the Department of Urology, introduced that prostatic hyperplasia will bring patients problems such as difficulty urinating, the number of nocturia, and when it is serious, it will also lead to hydronephrosis, kidney failure, which endangers life safety, and super prostatic hyperplasia patients like Lao Wang must pay attention to it and come to the hospital as soon as possible.
