Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to consult some questions. I am only 35 years old this year, but I don't know what reason I have been feeling difficult to urinate recently. Sometimes it's also split when urinating. I have started to pay attention, but it's getting more serious now. When I went to the hospital for a detailed examination, it was found that I had benign prostatic hyperplasia. How much does it cost to treat this disease?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia has various surgical methods, and the costs differ depending on the surgical approach. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) costs approximately 15,000-20,000 yuan, transurethral resection of the prostate (TUPRP) costs around 15,000 yuan, and transurethral enucleation of the prostate (TUEP) costs about 20,000 yuan. The fee standards vary among different surgical methods, and the materials used are also different, resulting in a significant cost difference. If prostate hyperplasia leads to recurrent urinary retention, residual urine volume exceeding 60ml, poor response to drug treatment, or secondary upper urinary tract obstruction, these are all indications for surgery.
