Инфекционные осложнения (ИО) являются значимым, потенциально жизнеугрожающим состоянием, развивающимся при трансуретральной резекции предстательной железы (ТУРП) с частотой от 0,5% до 20,0% случаев. Большая часть исследований предоставляют данные в отношении непосредственных и ближайших ИО. При этом в текущее время в литературе отсутствуют работы, всесторонне освещающие отдалённые ИО после ТУРП. Проблема профилактики и лечения ИО осложняется также недостаточным пониманием роли не диагностированного воспаления в тканях предстательной железы и отсутствием репрезентативных лабораторных маркёров.</p></sec><sec><title>Цель исследования</title><p>Цель исследования. Оценка плотности простатспецифического антигена (PSAd) как предиктора отдалённых инфекционных осложнений после трансуретральной резекции простаты.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. В настоящее многоцентровое исследование включены 162 пациента, которым за период с 2016 по 2023 годы были выполнены моно- и биполярная ТУРП. Критерии включения в исследование: объём предстательной железы 30 – 80 см3, отсутствие в анамнезе инфекций мочевых путей (ИМП) на момент госпитализации и лечения антибактериальными препаратами как минимум за 1 месяц до операции, возможное наличие латентных ИМП перед операцией, отсутствие рака предстательной железы. Критерием исключения служило несоответствие критериям включения. Оцениваемые инфекционные осложнения включали инфекции верхних и нижних мочевых путей, а также эпидидимит, орхит и простатит, подтверждённые на основании клинико-лабораторных данных. Оценка простатспецифического антигена (ПСА) происходила не ранее 2 суток перед операцией.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. Медиана показателя PSAd составила 0,04 [0,03; 0,08] нг/мл2, показатель значимо различался в группах без ИО и с ИО (0,04 и 0,08 нг/мл2 соответственно, р = 0,009). Площадь под кривой (AUC) составила 0,67 (95% ДИ [0,546 – 0,791]). Определено оптимальное пороговое значение (cut-off) показателя PSAd как предиктора отдалённых ИО: PSAd &gt; 0,07 нг/мл2, чувствительность / специфичность — 58,3% и 76,1% соответственно. Анализ показал более чем четырёхкратное повышение шансов развития инфекционного осложнения при PSAd &gt; 0,07 нг/мл2: отношение шансов — 4,3 (95% ДИ [1,7 – 10,5], р = 0,001).</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Исследование демонстрирует результаты, определяющие новую клиническую неонкологическую значимость показателя плотности ПСА как предиктора развития отдалённых инфекционных осложнений после трансуретральной резекции предстательной железы.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. Infectious complications (ICs) after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) are significant and potentially life-threatening conditions with an incidence 0.5% – 20.0%. Most publications provide data regarding early infectious complications. At the same time, there are currently no studies aimed at a comprehensive assessment of long-term infectious complications after TURP. The problem of prevention and treatment of ICs is also accompanied by insufficient understanding of the role of undiagnosed inflammation in prostate tissues and the lack of representative laboratory markers.</p></sec><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective. To assess the prostate-specific antigen density (PSAd) as a predictor of long-term infectious complications after transurethral resection of the prostate and to determine the optimal cut-off value.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials &amp; methods</title><p>Materials &amp; methods. This single-center study included 162 patients who underwent mono- and bipolar TURP between 2016 – 2023. Inclusion criteria for the study: prostate volume 30–80 cm3, no history of urinary tract infections (UTIs) at the time of hospitalization and antibiotic treatment at least one month before surgery, possible presence of latent UTIs before surgery, no prostate cancer. Exclusion criteria were failure to meet inclusion criteria. Infectious complications assessed included upper and lower UTIs, as well as epididymitis, orchitis and prostatitis, confirmed by clinical and laboratory data. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) assessment was performed &lt; 2 days before surgery.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. The median PSAd value was 0.04 [0.03; 0.08] ng/ml2, the variable was significantly different in non-infection and infection groups (0.04 and 0.08 ng/ml2, respectively, p = 0.009). The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.67 (95% CI [0.546 – 0.791]). The optimal cut-off value of the PSAd in prediction of long-term ICs was &gt; 0.07 ng/ml2, sensitivity / specificity: 58.3% and 76.1%, respectively. The analysis showed more than 4 times higher odds of developing an infectious complication in PSAd &gt; 0.07 ng/ml2 patients: OR 4.3 (95% CI [1.7 – 10.5], p = 0.001).</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. This study demonstrates data that defines a new clinical non-oncological significance of PSAd as a predictor of the development of long-term infectious complications after TURP.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>доброкачественная гиперплазия предстательной железы</kwd><kwd>ДГПЖ</kwd><kwd>трансуретральная резекция предстательной железы</kwd><kwd>ТУРП</kwd><kwd>инфекционные осложнения</kwd><kwd>инфекции мочевых путей</kwd><kwd>ИМП</kwd><kwd>плотность простатспецифического антигена</kwd><kwd>ПСА</kwd><kwd>пиелонефрит</kwd><kwd>эпидидимоорхит</kwd><kwd>простатит</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>benign prostatic hyperplasia</kwd><kwd>BPH</kwd><kwd>transurethral resection of the prostate gland</kwd><kwd>TURP</kwd><kwd>infectious complications</kwd><kwd>urinary tract infections</kwd><kwd>UTI</kwd><kwd>prostate-specific antigen density</kwd><kwd>PSA</kwd><kwd>pyelonephritis</kwd><kwd>epididymo-orchitis</kwd><kwd>prostatitis</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Jo JK, Shinn SH, Kim KS, Moon HS.
