Abstract
The importance of maintaining a low intravesical pressure during transurethral resection of the prostate has been demonstrated in studies of the relationship between bladder pressure and the amount of irrigating fluid absorbed during the procedure. Several methods of monitoring pressure are described, and the advantages and disadvantages of each are discussed.
