Laser TURP in Turkey
Prostate transurethral resection (TURP) is an operation which is used to treat urinary problems caused by an enlarged prostate. Prostate laser surgery is used to relieve moderate to severe urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate.
An instrument called a resectoscope is inserted into the tube that carries urine from your bladder (urethra), through the tip of your penis. The resectoscope helps your doctor see and trim off excess prostate tissue that blocks the flow of urine.
TURP is usually considered as an alternative for men with mild to serious urinary problems who have not responded to the drug. While TURP has been considered the most effective treatment for an enlarged prostate, many other, minimally invasive procedures are becoming more effective. These procedures generally cause fewer complications and have a quicker recovery period than TURP.
