Did you know that TuLEP surgery also exists for prostate enlargement (benign prostatic hyperplasia)?

TuLEP (Transurethral Enucleation of the Prostate with Laser) is a minimally invasive surgery to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), that is, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate.

What does it consist of?

It is performed through the urethra, using a laser (generally Thulium) that allows enucleation or removal of the prostatic tissue obstructing urine flow, without the need for external incisions.

Main benefits of TuLEP surgery for prostate enlargement

  • Minimally invasive procedure
  • Less bleeding and postoperative pain
  • Lasting results
  • Even in large prostates.

  • Faster recovery
  • Compared to traditional surgeries.

    TuLEP is a modern, safe, and effective alternative for patients with BPH, offering results comparable to techniques such as HoLEP, but with a different type of laser that provides precision and safety.
