Laser Prostatectomy – Advanced Treatment for Enlarged Prostate (BPH)

Why is Laser Prostatectomy Recommended?

To relieve urinary obstruction caused by Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

When medications fail to improve symptoms

In cases of urinary retention or recurrent urinary tract infections

For patients with low surgical tolerance or high bleeding risk

To prevent complications such as bladder damage or kidney strain


Types of Laser Prostatectomy

🔹 HOLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) – Removes entire prostate adenoma with minimal bleeding
🔹 GreenLight Laser Therapy – Vaporizes excess prostate tissue
🔹 Thulium Laser Prostatectomy – Provides precise and bloodless tissue removal


Key Benefits of Laser Prostatectomy

Minimally invasive – no large incisions

Minimal bleeding – suitable for heart patients

Rapid symptom relief and improved urine flow

Short hospital stay – often with same-day discharge

Lower risk of sexual dysfunction compared to traditional surgery

Faster recovery and quicker return to normal activities


How the Procedure Works

  1. Anesthesia: Spinal or general anesthesia is given.
  2. Endoscopic Access: A thin laser probe is inserted via the urethra—no external cuts are made.
  3. Laser Energy Delivery: The laser is used to enucleate or vaporize excess prostate tissue causing the blockage.
  4. Tissue Removal: In enucleation cases, tissue fragments are morcellated and removed.
  5. Urinary Catheter: A temporary catheter is placed post-surgery for 24–48 hours.
  6. Recovery: Most patients return to normal bladder function within a few days.
