Laser prostate surgery is utilized to mitigate moderate to severe urinary side effects caused by an enlarged prostate, a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Dr. Milind Bapat has extensive experience in performing endoscopic prostate surgery in Pune, offering patients effective and minimally invasive treatment options.
Laser prostate surgery uses focused laser energy to remove excess prostate tissue that is obstructing the urinary flow. This technique offers several advantages over traditional surgical methods, including reduced bleeding, shorter recovery times, and less postoperative discomfort.
Dr. Bapat specializes in several types of endoscopic prostate surgery, including:
● MonoPolar TURP : A traditional method that uses electrical energy to remove excess prostate tissue.
● Bi Polar TURP : A safer alternative that reduces the risk of complications by using a different electrical technique.
● HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) : This procedure uses a holmium laser to remove obstructive prostate tissue, providing significant relief from urinary symptoms.
● Thulium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (ThuLEP) : Similar to HoLEP, this technique uses thulium laser energy for precise tissue removal.
Prostate Laser Surgery helps in improving the flow of urine. While laser prostate surgery is primarily used for BPH, it can also be effective in treating localized prostate cancer through laser focal therapy. Further, its results are long-lasting.
