In Bihar, Patna, and Bihar Sharif, countless middle-aged and elderly men suffer from prostate-related urinary problems. TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate) is a widely trusted, minimally invasive operation that relieves symptoms of BPH (benign prostate enlargement) and restores quality of life. At Ashirvad Healthcare, our urology specialists perform TURP using advanced, safe techniques.

What Is TURP?

TURP is a gold-standard endoscopic surgery to treat enlarged prostate (BPH). Instead of a big incision, TURP uses a thin scope inserted through the urethra to remove excess prostate tissue and clear the urine pathway.

Who Needs TURP?

  • Men complaining of frequent or urgent urination, especially at night

  • Weak urine stream, hesitancy, or dribbling

  • Incomplete bladder emptying

  • Repeated urinary tract infections due to prostate obstruction

If medicines fail to control symptoms or complications (retention, stones, bleeding) arise, TURP is the preferred, minimally painful option.

Step-by-Step TURP Procedure

  1. Preparation: Investigations (PSA, ultrasound), stop certain meds, brief fasting.

  2. Anesthesia: Spinal or light general anesthesia.

  3. Surgery:

    • A small endoscope enters via the urinary passage.

    • Prostate tissue blocking urine flow is shaved using a tiny loop with electrical energy.

    • Washing out of loose tissue (no stitches needed).

  4. Catheterization:

    • Catheter kept for 1–3 days to allow healing and clear blood clots.

  5. Recovery:

    • Hospital stay is usually 2–3 days.

    • Most men resume normal work within a week.
