[Sexual consequences of benign prostatic hyperplasia].

In this thesis are evaluated the sexual questionnaires retrieved from 412 patients (TVPE 101, TURP 272, TUIP + PRP 25, TUIP 14), who had been operated on during 1988-1993 for the BPH at the department of Urology, FN Motol. Before the surgery, 69.7% of patients were sexually active yet (28.6% regularly, 41% irregularly). Without sexual intercourse were 29.9% in the time of surgery and 2 patients (0.5% did not respond the questions. The sexual activity was rapidly declining in the 7th decade, in the 8th decade still 41% of the patient argued sexual activity prior to surgery. The libido remained unchanged in 62.9%, worsened in 24.3% and improved in 10.7%. The changes in libido was neither parallel to the aging nor the type of prostatic surgery. After the surgery, the intercourse was admitted only by 49.3% of patients. Without any intercourse remained 50%. The difference compared to the pre-surgery responds is statistically proved (p < 0.01). The erectile dysfunction seemed to be the main cause of sexual intercourse decline. The impotence margin after TVPE or TURP is not statistically significant. On the other hand, the reawakening of the sexual activity at the patients, who had already not experienced intercourse preoperatively, was recorded only in 6 cases (1.5%). The unchanged ejaculation after surgery argued 13.1% of patients, the weaker ejaculation was recorded in 21.6% of patients and ejaculation was completely absent in 62.4% (retrograde ejaculation). Between TVPE and TURP was no significant margin found. The ejaculation damage after minimal prostatic surgery (TUIP + PRP and TUIP alone) is significantly minor (p < 0.01) than after the standard prostatectomy (TVPE and TURP).
