HoLEP — Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate — the gold standard for significant BPH. Precise, complete prostate tissue removal with fewer complications and faster recovery at Unittas Hospital.
Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) is an advanced, minimally invasive laser surgery for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). It uses a holmium laser to precisely enucleate (detach and remove) the obstructing prostate tissue in large lobes — allowing complete removal without external cuts. The tissue is then morcellated (pulverised) and extracted, restoring the normal urethral opening. HoLEP is highly effective for prostates of any size and is considered a gold standard for significant BPH.
Performed under general or spinal anaesthesia, usually 1–3 hours depending on prostate size:
| Factor | HoLEP | TURP |
|---|---|---|
| Prostate Size | Any size, especially large | Moderate size preferred |
| Recurrence Rate | Lower (more complete removal) | Higher |
| Bleeding | Minimal (laser cauterises) | More |
| Hospital Stay | 1–2 days | 1–3 days |
| Catheter Duration | 24–48 hours | 1–3 days |
