Methods for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia in the department

The clinic uses 5 innovative methods of treating prostatic hyperplasia.

Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP)

The Helios Clinic Krefeld offers holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP). A feature of this method is layer-by-layer preparation: with the help of a holmium laser, a layer of connective tissue is created between the prostate capsule and the enlarged internal gland. This procedure allows surgery for patients with anemia compared to conventional procedures (electrical loop or open surgery).

At the end of the operation, the adenoma is crushed through the urethra with a morcellator and aspirated. Removing tissue is much more thorough than using an electric loop. The effectiveness of this procedure has been confirmed by international studies and therefore recommended by European specialized communities.

Saline transurethral resection (TURis)

An enlarged prostate is shrunk with a thin electrical loop – this reliable procedure is abbreviated as TURis.

Advantages of the method: physiological fluid is used here (unlike TUR-P), which ensures the absence of TUR-syndrome – a serious complication that happens with other solutions.

Rezum therapy

The Rezum procedure is an innovative steam treatment. She offers the following benefits to men with prostate enlargement:

Alternative to drugs;
Safety and effectiveness in relieving symptoms;
Most patients see improvement in symptoms within two weeks;
Does not require general anesthesia;
Supports erection and urethral function;
Allows you to return to normal activities within a few days.

Patients suitable for Rezum Therapy at the Helios Krefeld Clinic:

Men who do not want to take drugs for prostate adenoma;
Men with contraindications for surgical interventions;
Men who should not be given general anesthesia.

Open retropubic prostatectomy for large prostate (Millin Surgery)

This operation is recommended for patients to eliminate symptoms for a long time. It is used for patients with complications:

The prostate is greatly enlarged;
At the same time there are stones in the bladder.

Advantages of surgery at the Helios Krefeld clinic:

Gentle access – only a small incision is made in the lower abdomen;
The procedure has been performed for over 70 years – it is safe and reliable;
Short duration of the operation;
Fast recovery after surgery.

Embolization of the artery of the prostate

The purpose of prostatic artery embolization is to restrict the blood supply to the prostate. A decrease in blood supply leads to a shrinkage of the enlarged prostate gland. This will improve the man’s symptoms and allow painless urination.
