OBJECTIVES: Although glomerulation in the bladder mucosa when the bladder is overdistended is a finding suggestive of interstitial cystitis (IC), it is sometimes observed at transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for patients with lower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia (LUTS/BPH). We prospectively investigated the incidence and clinical implications of glomerulation found at TURP. METHODS: From December 2003 to October 2005, 197 patients aged 50 years or older who were considered to be appropriate candidates to undergo TURP for LUTS/BPH were investigated in this study. Just before beginning resection under spinal anesthesia, the bladder was filled to a water pressure of 80 cm and the capacity was measured. After evacuation of the fluid, careful inspection was conducted for glomerulation during refilling. Before TURP, and 3 and 12 months after TURP, the International Prostate Symptom Score and O'Leary-Sant IC Symptom and Problem Index were determined, and uroflowmetry and measurement of residual urine volume were performed. RESULTS: Glomerulation was observed in 40 of the 197 patients (20.3%). There was no difference in bladder capacity between the glomerulation and nonglomerulation groups, although the glomerulation group was younger with lighter resected weight and a higher baseline IC problem index than the nonglomerulation group. There were no differences in other parameters before, 3, and 12 months after TURP between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Although glomerulation at TURP is a common finding, the clinical implications related to IC are unknown. Glomerulation itself may not be a predictor of the clinical outcome of TURP. Glomerulation observed during transurethral resection of the prostate for patients with lower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common finding but no predictor of clinical outcome.
