Abstract

 

Objectives: research what is the actual role of the laparoscopic approach in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, in daily practice of Latin American urologists.

Materials and methods: an online survey was conducted during the period June - September 202, send to all members of the Confederación Americana de Urología, through its official networks.

Results: laparoscopic adenomectomy is not the preferred approach for the treatment of prostates larger than 100g (4% vs 76% for open adenomectomy), most respondents never performed this technique (76%), however, urologists recognize that the laparoscopic approach has benefits over the open approach (64%).

Conclusions: although the laparoscopic approach has shown clear benefits in terms of surgical morbidity compared to the open approach, for most Latin American urologists, the technique has not yet been implemented in routine daily practice, being an unknown technique for most of respondents.
