Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate is the most versatile surgical technique for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), as it can be used with any type of BPH and any size of prostate.
It is currently recognised and recommended by the major international urological guides due to the comfort that the transurethral approach offers and the high level of effectiveness and safety it provides.
Numerous studies have shown that its efficacy is comparable to that of open surgery, but there are also added advantages such as limited patient bleeding, reduced hospitalisation and bladder catheterisation time, fewer post-operative complications, and a lower rate of long-term relapse.
