Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HOLEP) Technique: A Safe and Effective Option in Transurethral Prostate Resection

Abstract

Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HOLEP) is a surgical technique increasingly used in transurethral resection of the prostate. This procedure has been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, offering a higher success rate in the removal of prostate tissue and a lower rate of complications compared to other methods of transurethral prostate resection. In addition, HOLEP has been used successfully in patients with large prostates and those with coagulation disorders, making it a safe and effective treatment option for a wide variety of patients. In summary, HOLEP is an effective and safe surgical technique in transurethral resection of the prostate, and may be an attractive treatment option for patients seeking a rapid recovery and reduced complication rate.
