Laser Prostate Surgery

Prostate laser surgery/HOLEP is used to relieve moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms which happen due to large prostate and the condition is known as BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia). During the prostate laser surgery, the doctor will insert a scope through the penis tip into the tube and this carries urine from the bladder. The urethra is surrounded by a prostate. The laser which passes through the scope delivers energy that removes or shrinks excess tissue which stops urine flow. Lasers are used to concentrate light to generate heat in a precise manner.
