Comparison · BPH
UroLift vs TURP: implant-based opening versus tissue removal.
UroLift and TURP are not interchangeable. UroLift holds tissue aside with implants. TURP removes tissue. The right choice depends on anatomy, severity, and priorities.
Procedure fit
UroLift may fit selected men seeking quicker recovery and sexual-function preservation. TURP may fit men who need tissue removal.
Tradeoffs
A good consult covers durability, retreatment risk, ejaculation changes, catheter expectations, and alternatives.
