💠 HOLEP LASER PROSTATE SURGERY IN TURKEY

The Modern, Minimally Invasive Solution for Enlarged Prostate (BPH)

HoLEPHolmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate — is the gold standard surgical treatment for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), also known as enlarged prostate.
It uses a high-energy holmium laser to remove obstructive prostate tissue safely and precisely, improving urine flow and restoring quality of life — without major surgery.

At Medicine Park International, we connect patients worldwide with leading urology hospitals in Turkey offering advanced HoLEP laser therapy performed by expert surgeons using the latest equipment and techniques.

⚕️ WHAT IS BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA (BPH)?

BPH is a common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that affects many men over the age of 50.
As the prostate grows, it compresses the urethra and causes urination problems, such as:

  • Weak or interrupted urine flow

  • Frequent or urgent urination, especially at night

  • Difficulty starting urination

  • Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying

While medications can relieve symptoms temporarily, HoLEP provides a permanent, surgical solution by removing the overgrown tissue completely.

🔬 HOW HOLEP SURGERY WORKS

HoLEP uses laser technology to separate and remove the obstructive prostate tissue while preserving surrounding structures.

Step-by-Step Procedure:

  1. The patient receives spinal or general anesthesia.

  2. A holmium laser is inserted through the urethra — no external incision.

  3. The laser enucleates (peels away) the enlarged tissue from the capsule of the prostate.

  4. The tissue is then cut and removed using a special device called a morcellator.

  5. A urinary catheter is placed temporarily for drainage and removed within 24–48 hours.

The entire procedure usually takes 60–90 minutes, and patients can go home the next day.

🌟 BENEFITS OF HOLEP COMPARED TO TRADITIONAL SURGERY (TURP OR OPEN SURGERY)

  • Minimally invasive: No incision, no external scar

  • 💧 Immediate relief of urinary symptoms

  • 🩸 Less bleeding: Ideal even for patients on anticoagulant therapy

  • 🕒 Short hospital stay: Usually 1 day

  • 💪 Quick recovery: Return to normal activity within 1–2 weeks

  • 🔁 Long-term effectiveness: Extremely low recurrence rate

  • 🔬 Complete removal of excess tissue: Unlike TURP, HoLEP can handle prostates of any size

👨‍⚕️ WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR HOLEP?

You may be a good candidate for HoLEP if you:

  • Have moderate to severe urinary symptoms caused by BPH

  • Have not responded well to medication

  • Have a large prostate (over 60–80 grams)

  • Want a long-lasting, minimally invasive solution

The procedure is also safe for elderly patients and those taking blood-thinning medication.

🧩 RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most patients notice an immediate improvement in urine flow after surgery.
Mild burning or blood in the urine can occur for a few days but resolves quickly.

Recovery Timeline:

  • Hospital stay: 1 day

  • Catheter removal: 24–48 hours

  • Back to work / normal activities: 7–10 days

  • Full recovery: 2–3 weeks

Long-term studies show HoLEP provides durable symptom relief with minimal complications and the lowest re-treatment rate among all laser procedures.
