TURP surgery (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate) is a minimally invasive prostate surgery used to treat urinary problems caused by an enlarged prostate. It is one of the most commonly performed procedures for men who do not get adequate relief from medication.

During TURP prostate surgery, a specialised surgical instrument is passed through the urethra to remove excess prostate tissue that blocks urine flow. This helps improve symptoms such as difficulty urinating, weak urine stream, frequent urination, and incomplete bladder emptying. In some cases, doctors may recommend laser TURP surgery, which uses laser energy for precise tissue removal and reduced bleeding.
