Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate Is Associated with Complications and Sequelae Even in the Hands of an Experienced Surgeon Following Completion of the Learning Curve.

Background: Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is considered a challenging procedure even for surgeons who have completed the learning curve.
Objectives: To assess outcomes and complications following HoLEP performed by a highly experienced surgeon.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This was a single-institution prospective study (NCT03583034) performed at a tertiary referral centre that included 243 consecutive patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) treated with HoLEP by a single experienced surgeon (>1600 cases).
Background: Whether early ligation of the dorsal venous complex (DVC) might improve recovery of urinary continence (UC) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has never been investigated in a prospective randomized study.
Objective: To assess whether early DVC ligation might affect UC recovery after RARP.
Intervention: DVC ligation (early vs standard).
Background: Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is considered a challenging procedure with a non-negligible risk of complications limiting its widespread adoption. We investigated rates and preoperative predictors of complications in a high-volume center with long-time experience.
Methods: Data from 284 patients treated with HoLEP between 2015 and 2017 were analyzed.
Background: Scarce data are available about long-term follow-up (FU) in men undergoing holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP).
Objective: To investigate the risk of being symptomatic at 10-yr FU after HoLEP.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Perioperative data from 125 patients submitted to HoLEP in 2007-2010 by a single, highly experienced surgeon were analyzed.
