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.
