Abstract
Transurethral prostate resection for benign prostatic obstruction in patients with Parkinson's disease may be successful in up to 70% and the risk of de novo urinary incontinence seems minimal. Thus, Parkinson's disease should no longer be considered a contraindication for transurethral prostate resection provided that preoperative investigations including urodynamic assessment indicate prostatic bladder outlet obstruction.
