Proven option for selected patients
Reliable relief of prostate obstruction through the urethra.
TURP removes obstructing prostate tissue through the urethra using electrocautery — no external incision.
Under anaesthesia, obstructing tissue is resected. A catheter is typically placed temporarily. Hospital stay is usually short.
Urinary flow typically improves within days to weeks. Catheter duration and activity guidance are individualized.
TURP remains appropriate for many patients. HoLEP may be preferred for larger glands. Dr. Aviral explains both options honestly.
