Application of seminal vesiculoscopy on the treatment of seminal vesiculitis
Abstract
Objective: The development of seminal vesicle technology has greatly improved the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment of seminal vesiculitis, but its long-term efficacy and postoperative complications still need to be evaluated further.
Patients and methods: Ninety-eight patients with seminal vesiculitis were randomly assigned to a traditional medical treatment control group (n = 49) and a seminal vesiculoscopy group (n = 49). The clinical efficacy of the two groups of patients, including blood sperm and pain, was evaluated 1 month after surgery. The maximum urine flow rate (MFR) and the average urine flow rate (AFR) were measured.
Results: Compared with traditional medicine, seminal vesicle endoscopy has a higher clinical effect on seminal vesiculitis. Seminal vesicle therapy was more effective in reducing blood cells in patient’s semen and improving the patient’s urinary function. The seminal vesicle volume and seminal fructose were significantly improved.
Conclusions: The efficacy of seminal vesiculoscopy for seminal vesiculitis is better than traditional medicine.
