Comparing surgical techniques: ThuLEP and transurethral BPEP for prostate over 80 grams. Intraoperative and postoperative results. A prospective randomized trial.

Background And Purpose: Though TURP remains the primary treatment for BPH, advancements in energy and technology have introduced innovative transurethral surgical options. In this study, we assessed and compared the effectiveness and safety of using thulium laser and bipolar for endoscopic enucleation of prostate exceeding 80 g.

Patients And Methods: Between January 2022 and July 2023, this study enrolled patients with LUTS due to BPH and a prostate size of ≥80 g.
