Patient's question:
I have prostatitis and now want to undergo a minimally invasive surgery for the prostate. Is this surgery risky?Doctor's answer:
Minimally invasive surgery for the prostate carries little risk, and this technology is already quite mature. The most effective method for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is surgical intervention. Minimally invasive transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or laser ablation can be performed. This surgery poses no particularly high or low risk for surgeons. Generally, the above hospitals can perform this surgery, with the cost approximately around 10,000 yuan. For prostate patients, timely treatment can reduce complications, whereas delayed treatment may affect their physical condition. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain a regular lifestyle, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
