Brief summary (registry, in English)

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common chronic progressive disease resulting in the enlargement of the prostate gland and bladder outlet obstruction in aging men . Because of the increasing aged population and advancements in diagnostic tools, the incidence and importance of BPH have increased . BPH can be treated either with watchful waiting, drug therapy, or surgery being the most effective treatment option for BPH . Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has been recognized as the standard treatment for BPH with morbidity rate varies from 18% and 26% Until now, only open prostatectomy and transurethral Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) have shown an equal efficacy and durability compared to TURP
