Background: Bladder outlet obstruction, common in older men, shows increased detrusor pressure and reduced urine flow during voiding. Diagnosis typically involves studying flow-rate and detrusor pressure values. Transvesical prostatectomy is a common treatment for significant prostatic enlargement, but real-world outcome data are scarce. Objective: To assess symptomatic improvement, changes in urinary incontinence and complications after transvesical prostatectomy for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Methods: Prospective cross-sectional study design was used and SPSS statistical software version 25 was used for data entry and analysis. Results: The mean age of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia was 64.73±8.7 years. Preoperative international prostate symptoms score (IPSS) was 27.6±3.08. At 3 months, IPSS declined significantly to 8.13±2.86 (p<0.001). Preoperative incontinence completely resolved in 30% and partially improved in 70% of patients. New onset incontinence occurred in 13.5%. At 6 months, IPSS was 5.67±2.31. Of those with new postoperative incontinence, 42.9% completely resolved and 57.1% improved. For preoperative incontinence, 71.4% completely resolved and 28.6% partially improved. Erectile function failed to improve. Conclusion: The study showed trans-vesical prostatectomy results promising results in lower urinary tract symptoms improvement. Post-op incontinence got better for most, but erectile function didn't return to normal.
