  • Title: [Transabdominal prostatic sonography and bladder neck-colliculus distance measurement for preoperative determination of prostatic weight: 2 methods in comparison].
    Author: Wiedemann A, Holtmann G.
    Journal: Z Urol Nephrol; 1990 Mar; 83(3):101-3. PubMed ID: 1694054.
    Abstract:
    The two current methods to evaluate the weight of prostatic gland preoperatively, transabdominal ultrasound and measurement of bladder neck-colliculus distance in cystoscopy, are compared in 106 patients. The correlation of these methods with the real weight and the correctness of a preoperative division in a weight of more or less than 60 g as a border line between TUR and prostatectomy are described and discussed.
