Introduction: Transurethral resection ofthe prostate (TURP) has been considered asthe gold standard treatment for obstructivevoiding dysfunction in men with benignprostatic hyperplasia. This standard treatmenthas been challenged by consistent datademonstrating the superiority of Holmiumenucleation of the prostate (HoLEP). Wereview summarizes the literature comparingHoLEP to traditional therapies TURP, openprostatectomy (OP) for BPH these are widelyused and have long term efficacy data.Patients undergoing HoLEP have significantshortened catheterization times, decreasedlength of hospital stay, fewer serious postoperativecomplications, greater reduction inpost-operative IPSS, greater improvementsin post-operative Qmax and lower rates ofrepeat endoscopic procedures for recurrentsymptoms compared with TURP and OP.Furthermore, HoLEP can be used to resectmore than 100 grams tissue and it isequivalent efficacy to open prostatectomy.Conclusion: HoLEP as the new goldstandard treatment for surgical BPH therapyfurther. HoLEP remains its difficult learningcurve when compared with traditionaltransurethral resection.
