What is (TURP) transurethral resection of the prostate
TURP, or Transurethral Resection of the Prostate, is a surgical procedure commonly used to treat urinary problems caused by an enlarged prostate. It involves the removal of part of the prostate gland using a special instrument inserted through the urethra. TURP is considered the gold standard for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that can block urine flow.
How Is (TURP) transurethral resection of the prostate Procedure Performed
TURP is performed under general or spinal anesthesia. Here’s how it works:
Insertion of the resectoscope: A resectoscope, a thin tube with a camera and an electric loop, is inserted through the urethra.
Prostate removal: The electric loop cuts away small portions of the enlarged prostate tissue, opening up the blocked passage and allowing urine to flow more freely.
Irrigation: A fluid is used to flush the bladder and urethra to clear away the removed tissue.
Completion: After the removal of the necessary prostate tissue, the resectoscope is withdrawn, and a catheter may be inserted to drain urine during the initial recovery.
The procedure typically takes about 60 to 90 minutes and is minimally invasive, as it does not require any external incisions.
Benefits of (TURP) transurethral resection of the prostate
Effective symptom relief: TURP is highly effective in reducing symptoms of an enlarged prostate, including frequent urination, difficulty starting urination, weak urine flow, and incomplete bladder emptying.
Minimally invasive: Since the procedure is performed via the urethra, no external incisions are needed, reducing recovery time.
Quick recovery: Most patients experience significant improvement in urinary symptoms within a few weeks after the procedure.
Long-term results: TURP offers long-term relief from the symptoms of BPH compared to medications or other less invasive procedures.
Why (TURP) transurethral resection of the prostate Performed
TURP is primarily performed to treat symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition where the prostate gland enlarges as men age. The enlargement of the prostate can block urine flow through the urethra, causing discomfort and complications such as:
Frequent urge to urinate
Inability to empty the bladder completely
Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Bladder stones
Kidney damage (in severe cases)
TURP is recommended when medications fail to alleviate symptoms, or when the symptoms of BPH significantly affect quality of life. The procedure improves urine flow, reduces symptoms, and prevents further complications.
