Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP)

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP)

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a surgery used to treat urinary problems that are caused by an enlarged prostate. An instrument called a resectoscope is inserted through the tip of the penis which helps the doctor to monitor and trim away excess prostate tissue that is blocking urine flow.

TURP is generally considered an option for men who have severe urinary problems and have not responded to medication. While TURP has been considered the most effective treatment for an enlarged prostate, a number of other, minimally invasive procedures are also considered effective based on the severity of the condition. These procedures generally cause fewer complications and have a quicker recovery period.

 

 


 


More About Treatment

The TURP procedure takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes to perform. Before surgery, general anesthesia is administered along with a dose of antibiotics to prevent infection.

TURP typically helps to relieve symptoms quickly. Most men experience stronger urine flow within a few days coupled with follow-up treatment to ease symptoms.
