The prostate gland can start to enlarge in men as they age, a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). BPH can cause various symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and nighttime urination.
HoLEP is one of the most advanced methods used in the treatment of BPH. Utilizing holmium laser technology for the enucleation (removal) of prostate tissue, HoLEP stands out with its high success rates and minimally invasive nature.
Advantages of HoLEP Treatment:
-
High success rate: HoLEP is highly effective in eliminating BPH symptoms and removing prostate tissue.
-
Minimally invasive: HoLEP is a closed surgical procedure, offering less pain and a faster recovery time compared to traditional open prostate surgeries.
-
Reduced bleeding: The risk of bleeding during HoLEP is significantly low.
-
Low risk of side effects: The side effects of HoLEP are generally mild and temporary.
-
Short catheterization period: Most patients require a catheter for only 1 or 2 days after HoLEP, providing greater comfort compared to other surgical methods.
