The results the summarized as follows: 1. Operating time required between 70 and 120 minutes, mean operating time 90. 5 minutes. 2. Blood loss attributable to operating manipulation was 225cc in average and none required blood transfusion during surgery except one patient received one pint blood postoperatively. 3. The duration of gross hematuria persisted postoperatively was between 2 and 5 days, 2.9 days in average. The shortest hospital stay was 9 days and the longest 15 days in patient with wound dehiscence, 11 days in average. Postoperative indwelling catheter was left in plate between 7 and 10 days, 8.3 days in average. 4. No severe complications other than temporary incontinence developed in a case and wound dehiscence in 2 was observed postoperatively.
