Patients were excluded if they had an International Prostate Symptom Score &lt;13, a maximum urinary flow rate &gt;15 mL\/s or presence of prostate cancer, bladder stone, urethral stricture, neurogenic bladder, or previous prostate surgery. The primary outcome was hemoglobin loss. The analysis was intention\u2010to\u2010treat. Postoperative findings (36\u2009months) were compared to baseline characteristics. Univariate and logistic regression analyses were performed for risk factors predicting hemoglobin loss or operative time in all patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There was no significant difference in baseline characteristics between the two groups. Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate was associated with significantly better operative time (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.019), operative efficiency (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), hemoglobin loss (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), catheterization duration (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and hospital stay (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) compared to bipolar transurethral resection of prostate. Both procedures were safe, with no significant difference in total complications (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.128). Blood transfusion (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.026) and capsular perforation (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.239) were reported only in the bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate group. There was no significant difference in rates of urinary tract infections (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.714), urethral strictures (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.359), or transient stress incontinence (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.717). At the last follow\u2010up (3\u2009years), holmium laser enucleation of the prostate was associated with significantly better International Prostate Symptom Scores, prostate\u2010specific antigen levels and maximum urinary flow rates compared to bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). In logistic regression analyses, prostate size and bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate were associated with significantly greater hemoglobin loss, whereas prostate size, capsular perforation, and bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate were associated with significantly longer operative time.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate and bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate are effective and safe for the management of moderate\u2010to\u2010severe lower urinary tract symptoms attributable to large\u2010volume benign prostatic hyperplasia (\u226580\u2009cc). However, if both techniques are available, holmium laser enucleation of the prostate is preferred due its better efficacy and safety profile.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/iju.14737","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,18]],"date-time":"2021-11-18T00:10:05Z","timestamp":1637194205000},"page":"128-135","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Holmium laser enucleation versus bipolar resection in the management of large\u2010volume benign prostatic hyperplasia: A randomized controlled trial"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Enmar","family":"Habib","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Kasr Al\u2010Ainy Hospitals Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Cairo Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed Fathi","family":"Abdallah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Theodor Bilharz Research Institute Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1029-1417","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammed Said","family":"ElSheemy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Kasr Al\u2010Ainy Hospitals Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Cairo Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed Hussein","family":"Badawy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Theodor Bilharz Research Institute Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hany H","family":"Nour","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Theodor Bilharz Research Institute Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ahmad Mostafa","family":"Kamal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Theodor Bilharz Research Institute Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mostafa","family":"AbdelMohsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Kasr Al\u2010Ainy Hospitals Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Cairo Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mamdouh A","family":"Roshdy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Theodor Bilharz Research Institute Giza Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alaa","family":"Meshref","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Kasr Al\u2010Ainy Hospitals Faculty of Medicine Cairo University Cairo Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","unstructured":"GravasS CornuJN GacciMet\u00a0al.EAU guidelines on management of non\u2010neurogenic male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) incl. benign prostatic obstruction (BPO): 2021 update.
