TURP Treatment

  • Description
Description

Transurethral Resection Of the Prostate (TURP) is a non-invasive surgical procedure. It is done under the supervision of a urologist to remove part of the prostate. Turp treatment is helpful in treating different symptoms caused by enlargement of the prostate. These symptoms include frequent urination, difficulty while urination etc. During TURP procedure the experienced urologist inserts a medicinal tool inside the urethra to diminish BPH effect. This tool contains an electric current or laser which assists in removing an enlarged part of the urethra. Since the tool inserts inside the urethra so it doesn’t involve any incisions. 

Symptoms of TURP

Turp is usually performed to treat benign prostatic enlargement/ Hyperplasia BPE/BPH. It is a condition where the prostate develops too large and causes various discomforts to a man. BPH is not related to cancer and happens when men get older. While having BPH the prostate may put pressure on urethra which leads to urinate related symptoms these include:

  • Frequent urge of urinate and can’t wait  
  • Going to urinate in every hour 
  • Kidney related issues 
  • Night discomfort 
  • Difficulty in urination 
  • Having difficulty in empty the bladder
  • Bleeding From the Prostate
  • Slow Urination 

 Risks of TURP Procedure

The surgery involve some risks which include: 

  • Blood clots in the legs that may often travel to the lungs. 
  • Breathing issues 
  • Infection
  • Mood wings 
  • Discomfort 
  • Reactions to medicines 

Before Procedure 

Before the procedure a patient needs to visit hospital multiple times for tests and evaluations. During consultation a doctor may perform some tests these include: 

  • Complete Physical Examination.
  • Analysing and controlling various conditions including high blood pressure, heart or lung issues, other pre-existing conditions. 
  • If the patient is a smoker then he must stop smoking a few weeks before the surgery procedure. 
  • A patient needs to Inform a healthcare provider about the medicines, vitamins and supplements that he is currently taking. 

Important Note: A doctor may ask a patient to stop taking blood thinner drugs such as aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, vitamin E, clopidogrel, warfarin etc. 

TURP Treatment Procedure 

Following are the surgical steps of TURP treatment: 

  • A general or spinal anaesthesia might be used during the procedure to make a patient relax throughout the procedure. 
  • Turp is usually performed with the help of a device called resectoscope, which is a metal tube containing a laser light, a tiny camera and loop of wire. The device passes through the urethra until it reaches the prostate, which means it does not require any incisions. 
  • Once the device is inserted successfully in the urethra the loop of wire is then heated with an electric current to remove the section of the prostate which causes problems during urination. After that a catheter is inserted inside the urethra to withdraw the fluid into the bladder and flush away the parts of the prostate that have been removed. 

After Procedure 

  • After the procedure the patient needs to stay at hospital for 1 to 3 days. However, in some cases a patient may be allowed to go home on the same day. 
  • The catheter used while the procedure will be left in place in the body, while a patient is in the hospital because the urethra may be swollen and without its support the patient not be able to urinate normally. 
  • After the procedure, it is common to feel discomfort for a week. Most individuals are up and about after this time, however, the patient needs to take things easy for 4 to 8 weeks. 
  • During recovery a patient will be advised to stay off work and avoid indulging in those activities which require physical strength. 
  • After a few weeks of the procedure it is quite normal to experience difficulty in urination and some blood in the urine. For this no need to worry just inform the consulted doctor and take the prescribed medicines.
