Our hospital has high-tech operation rooms with all the essential equipment and instruments required for Bipolar TURP surgery in Varanasi. If you are struggling with benign prostatic hyperplasia, Heritage Hospital's team will assist you in every step of your journey to recovery.

Bipolar TURP, or Bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate, is performed to remove the excess prostate gland tissue that might obstruct the urine flow. It is a minimally invasive or endoscopic surgical procedure aiming to improve the bladder's urine flow to the outside. Bipolar TURP is a better alternative to traditional TURP surgery to remove the excess prostate. It ensures no damage to the surrounding tissue due to electric current and reduces the chances of complications, like excessive bleeding, during and after surgery.

At Heritage Hospital, our dedicated team aims to provide you with relief from your symptoms, and that's why we offer personalized treatment plans after analyzing and evaluating patients' reports, conditions, and concerns. With advanced technology infrastructure, we have a well-built and equipped critical care center where our medical team is prepared to provide emergency care.

When is Bipolar TURP Required?

The prostate is a small gland found only in men, between the penis and bladder, surrounding the urethra (a tube that carries urine from the bladder to the penis). However, when the prostate enlarges, it pressures the urethra and affects urination. This condition is diagnosed as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and Bipolar TURP is the last option when the medications fail to improve the symptoms. Here are the symptoms that may improve after undergoing bipolar TURP surgery in Varanasi:

  • Problems starting to urinate .

  • Weak urine flow

  • Having strain to pass urine

  • Frequent need to urinate

  • Nocturia (Frequently waking up in the night to urinate)

  • Sudden urge to urinate

  • Unable to empty your bladder fully

Possible Risks

Even though it is a minimally invasive surgery, there are risks and complications associated with Bipolar TURP surgery in Varanasi. Here are some rare complications that might happen during or after the surgery:

  • Blood loss: Blood loss after the Bipolar TURP surgery is not fatal. At Heritage Hospital, we have a facility for performing blood transfusions that reduces the risk of excessive blood loss.

  • Infection - Infection is possible at the surgery site; however, the medical team maintains a sterile and safe environment during the surgery to reduce the risk of this complication. Moreover, we administer a broad spectrum of antibiotics before the surgery to decrease the chances of urinary infection.

  • Retrograde ejaculation - It is a condition when semen enters the bladder instead of emerging through the penis, and the doctors will use an appropriate medical intervention to treat the complication.

  • Erectile dysfunction - It is a rare complication, but Bipolar TURP surgery can lead to permanent erectile dysfunction.

  • TRU Syndrome - It is a rare but serious condition where excessive irrigation fluid gets absorbed into the bloodstream. It can cause nausea, confusion, changes in blood pressure, and vomiting. At Heritage Hospital, our medical staff's postoperative monitoring keeps a keen eye on the patient's vitals, and timely steps can be taken to manage the symptoms.
