Patient's question:
Male, 37 years old, gradually felt uncomfortable in his body, didn't know what was wrong, seemed to lack energy. Question: Is the surgery for benign prostatic hyperplasia complex?Doctor's answer:
Currently, most surgeries for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) can be performed without the need for open surgery or pressure methods. A scope is inserted into the urethra, and the procedure is carried out using modern methods such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) with plasma energy or laser. This removal does not involve cutting out the entire prostate but only the small, fibrotic portion that is causing the obstruction. The goal is to restore the urinary tract and ensure smooth urination. Overall, the current surgical approach causes relatively minor psychological trauma and is not considered overly complex.
