ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has been considered as the gold standard treatment for obstructive voiding dysfunction in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia. This standard treatment has been challenged by consistent data demonstrating the superiority of Holmium enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP). We review summarizes the literature comparing HoLEP to traditional therapies TURP, open prostatectomy (OP) for BPH these are widely used and have long term efficacy data. Patients undergoing HoLEP have significant shortened catheterization times, decreased length of hospital stay, fewer serious postoperative complications, greater reduction in post-operative IPSS, greater improvements in post-operative Qmax and lower rates of repeat endoscopic procedures for recurrent symptoms compared with TURP and OP. Furthermore, HoLEP can be used to resect more than 100 grams tissue and it is equivalent efficacy to open prostatectomy.Conclusion:
HoLEP as the new gold standard treatment for surgical BPH therapy further. HoLEP remains its difficult learning curve when compared with traditional transurethral resection.
