Prostate Benign
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in males where the prostate gland becomes enlarged. This enlargement can obstruct urine flow, leading to difficulties in urination, frequent urges, and a weak urine stream. While non-cancerous, BPH can significantly affect quality of life and may require treatment.
Procedures
1.TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate):
A surgical procedure used to treat an enlarged prostate by removing excess prostate tissue through the urethra, improving urinary flow.
2.Laser Treatment (ThuFlep):
A minimally invasive laser procedure for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), where laser energy is used to vaporize excess prostate tissue, improving urinary symptoms.
3.Open Prostatectomy:
A traditional surgical procedure where the prostate is removed through an abdominal incision, often used for larger prostates or prostate cancer treatment.
4.Bladder Neck Incision:
A procedure to make small cuts in the bladder neck to improve urine flow in patients with bladder outlet obstruction due to an enlarged prostate or other conditions.
