What is benign prostate hyperplasia?

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. It is very common with age and can narrow the urinary channel, causing weak urinary stream, frequent urination, urgency, nighttime urination, and the feeling of incomplete emptying.

When medication no longer provides enough relief, surgery can restore urine flow and protect bladder and kidney function. Many patients looking for HoLEP in Vienna (Wien) are searching for this type of definitive laser enucleation treatment.

What is ThuLEP?

ThuLEP means Thulium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate. Through the natural urinary passage, obstructing prostate tissue is separated from the prostate capsule using a thulium laser and removed from the bladder without external cuts.

Patients often search for HoLEP in Vienna or HoLEP Wien. HoLEP and ThuLEP are both laser enucleation approaches for BPH, with the same core goal: complete removal of obstructing adenoma tissue and durable symptom relief.

This approach is endoscopic and minimally invasive. It allows precise tissue preparation, good bleeding control, and effective relief of obstruction even in larger prostates.

Why is ThuLEP the best surgical treatment?

01.
Durable symptom relief

By removing the blocking adenoma tissue completely, ThuLEP provides strong and long-lasting improvement in urinary flow and quality of life.

02.
Less bleeding, faster recovery

The thulium laser allows excellent hemostasis. Many patients benefit from shorter catheter time, short hospital stay, and fast return to normal activity.

03.
Applicable for many prostate sizes

ThuLEP is a highly versatile technique and can be used effectively across a broad range of prostate volumes, including larger glands.
