Description of TURP Surgery:
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a surgical procedure performed to remove the whole or only a portion of the prostate gland that is enlarged.
TURP surgery is more common in the treatment of an enlarged prostate than open prostatectomy. Open prostatectomy is only required if the prostate is very large. The symptoms are significantly reduced after TURP surgery.
How is TURP Surgery Performed?
- A cystoscope, which is an endoscopic tube, is inserted into the patient’s urethra.
- A special cutting tool is inserted into the cystoscope.
- The prostate gland is removed in pieces with the help of an electric current.
- A sterile solution is used to flush the patient’s bladder and remove the tissues of the prostate gland.
How to Prepare for TURP Surgery?
- The patient is physically examined to ensure that the patient is in a good condition to undergo surgery.
- The patient may need to give some tests like blood and urine analysis, etc.
- The doctor should be informed about any medication that the patient is taking with or without a prescription. These may include supplements or herbs or drugs.
- Certain medication that the patient is taking may be stopped two weeks before the surgery.
