Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a surgical procedure to remove prostate tissue that's causing urinary problems, often due to an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH), by inserting a resectoscope through the urethra to cut away excess tissue. Here's a more detailed explanation: What is TURP? Purpose: TURP is a common surgical procedure used to treat symptoms of an enlarged prostate, such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and incomplete bladder emptying. How it's done: A resectoscope (a thin, lighted tube with a camera and cutting tools) is inserted through the urethra (the tube that carries urine out of the body). The surgeon uses an electrical loop within the resectoscope to cut away excess prostate tissue. The removed tissue is then flushed out of the bladder. Why it's used: TURP is often recommended when medications for BPH haven't been effective or when symptoms are severe. It can also be used to treat other conditions, such as bladder stones or kidney damage caused by an enlarged prostate. Recovery: A catheter is usually left in place for a few days to help drain urine and allow the urethra to heal. You may need to stay in the hospital for 1 to 3 days. Some common side effects include blood in the urine, burning sensation during urination, and urinary urgency. Alternative Names: TURP is sometimes referred to as a "rebore".
