“…The management of bladder neck obstruction by bilateral bladder neck incision has given excellent results. Keitzer et al (1969) treated 100 patients selected on clinical grounds, of whom 75% were cured. Orandi (1973) described a similar group of 40 patients with 34 having a good result, 5 improved and 1 failure, but these workers did not study either urodynamics or urine flow rates.…”

Thirty-eight patients with bladder neck obstruction were treated by unilateral bladder neck incision. Good subjective and urodynamic results were obtained in 33 patients. Retrograde ejaculation occurred in 16% of the patients on recommencing sexual activity. The value of combined videocystography and pressure flow studies is discussed. The technique is not recommended for patients presenting with acute retention.

“…Simple dilatation, sphincterotomy, wedge excision of the posterior lip of the bladder neck, complete neck excision, trigonectomy, subtrigonal plate excision, and V-Y plasty have the disadvantages of severe hemorrhage, clot retention, interference with the ureteral antireflux mechanism, retrograde ejaculation, and restenosis. [2][3][4][5] In a previous communication, we devised a cystomyotomy operation for the treatment of BNO with gratifying results.6 It comprised linear division of the muscle coat at the bladder neck and proximal urethra, the mucosa being spared and allowed to bulge through the gap. This technique could avoid the disadvantages of the aforementioned procedures.…”

Laparoscopic Cystomyotomy for Bladder Neck Obstruction

Laparoscopic cystomyotomy was used for the treatment of bladder neck obstruction in 18 male patients with a mean age of 36.4 +/- 10.4 (SD) years (range 22-43 years). Through an extraperitoneal laparoscopic approach, the bladder neck was exposed. A 1-in. linear incision was performed across the bladder neck, dividing the muscle coat but sparing the mucosa, which bulged through the gap. Patients were followed for a mean of 8.3 +/- 2.4 (SD) months (range 3-13 months). Improvement occurred in 16 patients (88.8%) and failure in 2 who had a calcified and contracted bilharzial bladder. No operative or postoperative complications were encountered. There was no retrograde ejaculation or restenosis. In conclusion, laparoscopic cystomyotomy is simple and easy with a short postsurgical recovery period.

Transurethral Incision of the Prostate and Bladder Neck

Transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP) is compared to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) by reviewing nonrandomized, matched, and randomized studies. These studies indicate that incision of the prostate and bladder neck relieves outflow urinary obstruction, as does TURP. The incision is relatively easier to learn and perform, and requires shorter operative time compared to TURP. The incidence of retrograde ejaculation is lower after incision than after TURP—16% versus 63%, on average. Transurethral incision of the prostate has a potential for reduced costs due to reduced operative time, shortened hospital stay, and the potential for local anesthesia.
