We want to investigate that the effect of pudendal block to postoperative pain, bladder spasm and patient comfort in transurethral prostatectomies

Detailed description

Outcome measures USG guided transperineal pudendal block success Postoperative pain score (VAS score) Postoperative bladder spasm (Severity of bladder discomfort will record as severe(behavioral responses such as strong vocal response, flailing limbs),moderate (not accompanied by any behavioral responses) and no bladder discomfort. Postoperative patient's comfort (poor, sufficient, good)
