While endoscopic bladder neck incision (BNI) is considered a viable treatment option, factors leading to success or failure remain not clearly elucidated. METHODS: This was a retrospective observational study which included patients receiving BNI for BNS after BPE surgery at our Institution between July 2014 and May 2023. International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS) was assessed three months after BNI. Failure after BNI was defined as IPSS score between 8-35pts. Logistic regression analysis assessed the association between treatment failure and predicting factors such as age, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), technique of BNI (ho-laser vs. Collins knife vs. cold knife), time from BPE surgery to the onset on BNS symptoms (<6 vs. ≥6 months), number of BNI procedures (fist-time vs. redo), prostate volume at BPE surgery, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, peripheral arterial disease, and ischemic heart disease. RESULTS: We identified 110 consecutive patients receiving BNI. The majority (92.7%) received ho-laser BNI, while 3 and 5 received Collins and cold knife BNI, respectively. BPE surgery was performed using techniques such as HoLEP, TURP, and others (ThuVAP and suprapubic transvesical prostatectomy) in 64 (58.2%), 40 (36.4%), and 6 (5.5%) patients, respectively. Median time from BPE surgery to BNS symptoms was 13months (IQR: 6-36m). Overall, at the 3-month follow-up date, 48 (64%), 23 (30.7%), and 4 (5.3%) patients reported mild (0-7pts), moderate (8-19pts), and severe (20-35pts) symptoms according to IPSS, respectively. Time from BPE surgery to BNS symptoms <6 months was the only statistically significant risk factor associated with risk of BNI failure at uni and multivariable analyses (OR 0.17, 95%CI 0.03-0.83, p=0.039). Among patients reporting severe postoperative IPSS (4 men) after BNI, all presented one or multiple comorbidities, and one had a CCI of 3. Two of them presented BNS symptoms within 5 months after BPE surgery, one received three BNI treatments, and all had indwelling catheter at the time of BPE surgery. CONCLUSIONS: BNI is a reliable surgical option in patients with BNS after BPE surgery. It is associated with satisfactory outcomes which are not influenced by age, comorbidities, surgical technique for BPE surgery and type of surgical BNI. The time interval between BPE surgery and BNS symptoms appears to be the sole predictive factor for the success of BNI. Among patients reporting severe postoperative IPSS after BNI, all had indwelling catheter at the time of their BPE surgery, and each of them presented at least one comorbidity. When providing counseling to patients for BNI, it's important to take these factors into account.
