Aim of the study is to compare the systemic inflammatory markers and surgical stress response in patients undergoing HOLEP or TUR-P surgery.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common disease in aging men worldwide, causing significant difficulties and resulting in bladder outlet obstruction. Basically, surgical techniques in patients with BPH are transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HOLEP), and open prostoactemy surgery. There are many studies comparing the clinical outcomes of TURP and HOLEP surgery. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has not been a study comparing the effects of these two types of surgery on inflammatory markers and stress hormones.
