Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of transurethral plasmakinetic resection of bladder tumors (PKRBT) and holmium laser resection of bladder tumors (HOLBT), and discuss the effcacy, safety, indication, and complications of PKRBT for the treatment of bladder tumors compared with HOLBT. Methods A hundred patients with bladder tumors were divided into two groups randomly, who were selected from patients in the Department of Urology of West China Hospital from March 2011 to March 2013. Among all the 100 cases, half of them were treated with PKRBT, and all others treated with HOBLT. The significant markers in both groups were recorded and evaluated, including the situation of before operation, during operation and after operation. The data recorded consisted of the general records of patients' medical background, concomitant disease, laboratory examination, and the position, amount, pathology of the tumor, total operative duration, the time of gross hematuria, the time of postoperative bladder irrigation and catheterization, the length of stay, postoperative complications and patients' conditions at month 3, 6, and 12 during the follow-up. Results All operations were successfully performed, and there was no significant diTherences between the two groups in preoperative indexes (P>0.05). No abnormalities were detected in the postoperative laboratory examinations. The diTherences in operatative duration, time of bladder irrigation, duration of indwelling catheter, and postoperative length of stay between the two groups were not significant (P>0.05). But the mean time of gross hematuria was significantly shorter after operation in the HOLBT patients [(6.1±7.6) hours] than in those treated with PKRBT [(15.3±17.2) hours] (P<0.05). There was no significant diTherence between the two groups in the recurrence rate 3, 6, and 12 months after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion HOLBT can be used safely and effectively in treating bladder tumors, and it is easy for clinical manipulation. HOLBT is as effective and safe as PKRBT with similar adverse side-effect rate within and after operation.
