Comparative Analysis of TURP and Open Prostatectomy: Experience from a Tertiary Care Institution
Abstract: Introduction: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in aging men, often requiring surgical intervention for large prostate volumes causing significant symptoms or complications. Open prostatectomy (OP) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) are widely used surgical options, yet comparative data in Indian tertiary care settings remain limited. Methods: This retrospective comparative study included 50 men aged ?50 years with BPH and prostate volume >80 grams. Patients underwent either OP (n=25) or TURP (n=25). Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative parameters, including International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), were analysed over a 3-month follow-up. Results: Baseline characteristics were comparable between groups. TURP had shorter operative time (68.3 vs 92.7 min, p
