Description
TURP treats urinary obstruction from benign prostatic hyperplasia, with typical costs ranging ¥1500–¥4500 in China; ChinaMedicalHub helps coordinate hospital booking and interpreter support.
Main Uses
The primary purpose of Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) is to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which causes urinary problems due to an enlarged prostate. It is also used in some cases for the treatment of early-stage prostate cancer. TURP is particularly useful when medication has not been effective, or when there are complications like recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder stones, or kidney damage.
Normal Range
Prostate resection (TURP) is a surgical procedure and does not have a 'normal range' in the traditional sense of a blood test or other diagnostic tests. The success of the procedure is typically measured by the relief of symptoms, such as improved urinary flow and reduced bladder outlet obstruction.
