calender April 20, 2024

Introduction

As men grow older, prostate problems such as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) become common. This condition leads to urinary difficulties, frequent urination at night, weak urine stream, and discomfort in daily life. At Iconix Hospital, Vaishali Nagar, Jaipur, we specialize in Laser Prostate Surgery (HOLEP) – a modern, safe, and effective treatment that helps elderly patients live more comfortably.


What is HOLEP?

Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HOLEP) is an advanced minimally invasive laser surgery for treating enlarged prostate. It removes excess prostate tissue using a high-precision laser, restoring normal urine flow without major cuts or stitches.


Benefits of HOLEP in Old Age Patients

  1. Minimally Invasive & Safe
    • Less bleeding, reduced pain, and quicker recovery.
  2. Faster Recovery
    • Patients can return to daily life within a few days compared to weeks in traditional surgery.
  3. Effective for Large Prostates
    • Works even in cases where traditional methods fail.
  4. Short Hospital Stay
