@entity1 @entity46 @entity1973 @entity14
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate urinary symptoms before and after colorectal resection for @entity46 using validated questionnaires. STUDY DESIGN: We randomly assigned 52 @entity1 with @entity14 to undergo laparoscopically assisted or open colorectal resection. The median follow-up was 19 months. Urinary symptoms were evaluated using the International Prostate Score Symptom and the Bristol Female Low Urinary Tract Symptoms questionnaires. RESULTS: Dysuria was observed in 29% of cases postoperatively. Using Bristol Female Low Urinary Tract Symptoms and International Prostate Score Symptom scores, an alteration was observed for voiding symptoms (P = .01 and P = .006, respectively). No difference was observed between the laparoscopy and the open surgery group. An alteration of the International Prostate Score Symptom voiding symptoms was observed in the group that did not undergo nerve sparing surgery (P = .048). An alteration of the International Prostate Score Symptom voiding symptoms was observed for @entity1 who underwent vaginal resection (P = .01) and parametrial resection (P = .02). CONCLUSION: Our findings confirm that colorectal resection for @entity46 is a source of @entity1973 whatever the surgical route.
