Transurethral plasma kinetic resection is an efficient and safe surgery for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Solifenacin succinate (SOL) is safe and clinically efficient for patients who endure transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) during the perioperative period. The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical optimal dose of SOL for nursing patients after TURP during the perioperative period. Patients were recruited and randomized into three groups: SOL (3 mg), SOL (6 mg), and SOL (10 mg). All patients received medical care for 3 weeks after TURP. Levels of inflammatory cytokines, including IL‑6, epithelial neutrophil activation peptide‑7 (ENA‑7), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‑α, interleukin (IL)‑2, IL‑17 and IL‑8, were investigated in the patients of all three groups. The efficacy of SOL was analyzed via the following scores: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OBSS), short‑form voiding (SFV) and storage score (TS) of International Continence Society (ICS). Outcomes showed that IL‑2 and ENA‑7 plasma concentration levels were upregulated, whereas TNF‑α, IL‑6, IL‑17 and IL‑8 were downregulated, in all three groups. The findings showed that patients that received SOL (6 mg) exhibited significant improvements compared to the other patient groups from baseline to the end of treatment, as determined by IPSS, OBSS, ICS, SFV, TS (P<0.01). In conclusion, these results indicate that SOL (6 mg) is the optimal dose for patients who undergo TURP during the perioperative period. Notably, treatment with SOL (6 mg) exhibited significant additional benefits in terms of lower urinary tract symptoms during the early recovery period after TURP, suggesting SOL is clinically significant for nursing patients who suffer have undergone TURP during the perioperative period.
