RESULTS: Overall, 65 usRASP and 75 AB were extracted. No differences were found in perioperative data between the two groups, except for mean (SD) operative time that was found to be shorter in the AB group (64.6 (14.4) vs 111.9 (23.6) min; p2 were recorded in the usRASP and AB cohort, respectively. Postoperative antegrade ejaculation was preserved in 96.0% of patients underwent AB, whilst in 76.9% of usRASP group (p0.05). 3 months median Qmax was 19.2 (2.4) and 22.5 (2.1) ml, and median (IQR) IPSS score was 4 (2-5) and 5 (1-5) points for AB and RASP group respectively (p>0.05); median (IQR) IPSS-QoL score (1 (0-1) vs 2 (0-2); p<0.05) and mean (SD) PVR (19.1 (10.1) vs 26.4 (11.2) ml; p 0.07) results were found to be better in usRASP group. Overall, Trifecta rate was significantly higher in AB cohort (94.3% vs 75.4%; p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: AB and RASP are safe and effective treatments for symptomatic BPH. RASP has shown slightly better urinary functional outcomes than AB in terms of IPSS-QoL and PVR. Whilst, AB seems to be more effective in antegrade ejaculation preservation, even in comparison to usRASP.
