The most cost-effective surgical alternative for benign prostatic hyperplasia

The most affordable surgical procedure to treat prostate enlargement.
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is one of the most widely used procedures worldwide to relieve symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia, with reliable and proven results.


What is TURP surgery for the treatment of prostate enlargement?

Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is a surgical procedure in which a special instrument is inserted through the urethra to remove excess prostate tissue that blocks urine flow.

It has been considered for many years the “gold standard” in the treatment of prostate enlargement, especially in small to medium-sized prostates.


When is TURP surgery recommended?

TURP surgery may be indicated in patients with prostate enlargement who present:

  • Moderate or severe urinary symptoms.
  • Recurrent urinary retention.
  • Bleeding associated with the prostate (hematuria).
  • Frequent urinary tract infections due to obstruction.
  • Lack of response to medications.

Do you have any of these symptoms? Transurethral prostate surgery could be right for you.
