We discuss the transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) on 40 patients in the chronic stage of stroke, all of whom were refractory to conservative managements of urinary disturbance. All patients, between 35 and 89 years old (mean: 52.6 years), had only one episode of stroke and were diagnosed as benign prostatic hypertrophy or bladder neck contracture that appeared to cause urinary disturbance in these patients. At six months after TUR-P, all except for one patient, who needed an indwelling catheter due to a reinfarction, were catheter free. Of these cases 36 (92%) obtained independent micturition and did not develop urinary incontinence except transiently postoperatively. Two cases with impaired mobility and one case with progressive senile dementia required helpmates and/or a commode and so forth postoperatively. It is concluded that in chronic stroke patients TUR-P is recommended for those with benign prostatic hypertrophy or bladder neck contracture.
