TUR-P (Transurethral Resection Of The Prostate)
Transurethral resection of the prostate or TURP is a surgery that is performed to treat any urinary problems that are the result of an enlarged prostate.
In this surgery, a combination surgical and visual instrument called a resectoscope is inserted through the tip of the penis, right into the urethra (the tube that carries the urine from the bladder). The prostate is located around the urethra, and through the resectoscope, the doctor is able to trim away the excess tissue of the prostate that is blocking the flow of the urine. TURP is one of the options for the men who have urinary problems (moderate to severe) and have not responded satisfactorily to medication. TURP has for long been considered as one of the most effective treatments for enlarged prostrates.
Why is it done?
