TURP Surgery – Standard Treatment for Enlarged Prostate

Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is a widely performed surgical procedure for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also known as enlarged prostate. This condition commonly affects men above the age of 50 and can lead to significant urinary problems. At Advanced Urocare Clinic, located at 72, Sector-13, Vasundhara, Ghaziabad - 201012 (U.P.), we provide advanced TURP surgery using modern endoscopic techniques to restore normal urinary function.

TURP is considered the gold standard surgical treatment for moderate to severe prostate enlargement when medications fail to provide relief.

Understanding Enlarged Prostate (BPH)

The prostate gland surrounds the urethra and may enlarge with age. When the gland grows, it compresses the urethra and obstructs urine flow. Although BPH is non-cancerous, untreated cases can cause bladder damage, urinary retention, and kidney complications.

TURP surgery removes excess prostate tissue that blocks urine flow, improving urinary symptoms and quality of life.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for TURP Surgery

Men suffering from significant prostate enlargement may experience:

  • Weak or interrupted urine stream

  • Difficulty starting urination

  • Frequent urination, especially at night

  • Urgent need to urinate

  • Incomplete bladder emptying

  • Dribbling at the end of urination

  • Recurrent urinary tract infections

  • Urinary retention

If these symptoms are severe or do not improve with medication, TURP surgery may be recommended.

Diagnostic Evaluation Before TURP

At Advanced Urocare Clinic in Ghaziabad, comprehensive evaluation is conducted before surgery, which may include:

  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test

  • Ultrasound of prostate and bladder

  • Uroflowmetry

  • Post-void residual urine measurement

  • Digital rectal examination

  • Cystoscopy when required

These tests help determine prostate size and the degree of urinary obstruction.

How TURP Surgery is Performed

TURP is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure performed without external incisions. The process typically involves:

  • Administration of spinal or general anesthesia

  • Insertion of a resectoscope through the urethra

  • Removal of excess prostate tissue using an electrical loop

  • Placement of a temporary urinary catheter

The procedure usually requires a short hospital stay for monitoring and recovery.

Benefits of TURP Surgery

TURP offers several advantages:

  • Significant improvement in urine flow

  • Relief from urinary obstruction

  • Reduced risk of bladder and kidney damage

  • Long-term symptom relief

  • No external surgical cuts

Most patients experience noticeable improvement in urinary symptoms within weeks.

Recovery After TURP

Post-operative care includes:

  • Temporary catheter placement for a few days

  • Increased fluid intake

  • Avoidance of heavy lifting for several weeks

  • Follow-up appointments to monitor recovery

Mild burning sensation or slight blood in urine may occur initially but typically resolves during recovery.
