Abstract
With the aim of prediction and prevention of early postoperative esophagogastroduodenal bleeding (EPEGDB), 1296 elderly patients with BPH were examined during the preoperative period before isolated or simultaneous operations. Patients in group 1 (n=357) with a history of gastric or duodenal ulcer underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS). In group 2 (n=522) EGDS was performed and gastric acidity was determined using AGM-03 acid-gastrometer. Patients of group 3 (n=417) underwent EGDS and gastric acidity was determined by hromogastroscopy. The differentiated approach to treating patients of group 3 on the basis of preoperative comprehensive examination resulted in preventing severe complications such as EPEGDB. Prevention of EPEGDB in this category of geriatric patients should be as mandatory as preventing thromboembolic, respiratory, cardiovascular and septic complications.
