What is Prostatectomy (TURP)?

Transurethral Resection of the Prostate removes excess prostate tissue through the urethra using a resectoscope to relieve urinary obstruction caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

What type of anesthesia is used?

Prostatectomy (TURP) is typically performed under Spinal/General anesthesia. Your anaesthetist will review your health history, medications, and allergies before the procedure to ensure safety.

What is the recovery time?

Most patients recover within 4–6 weeks, though this varies by individual health, age, and compliance with physiotherapy. Light activities can usually resume within a few weeks; full recovery takes longer.

What are the risks of Prostatectomy (TURP)?

As with any surgical procedure, risks include bleeding, infection, anaesthesia reactions, and rare complications such as injury to adjacent structures. Your surgeon will discuss your personal risk profile during the consent process.

What is the success rate of Prostatectomy (TURP)?

Prostatectomy (TURP) has a documented success rate of 93% when performed by qualified surgeons at accredited hospitals. Outcomes depend on the patient's overall health, disease severity, and adherence to post-operative care.
