bit.ly or bit.ly bit.ly or bit.ly www.PreOp.com – Patient Education Patient ED @ 617-379-1582 INFO Your doctor has recommended that you undergo a Trans Urethral Resection of the Prostate – or TURP. But what exactly does that mean? The prostate gland is a walnut-sized organ that is part of your reproductive system. It provides some of the fluid contained in semen. The prostate is located just under the bladder and behind the testicles. The urethra — a hollow tube that carries both urine and semen to the penis — passes through the prostate. In some men, the prostate gland becomes enlarged. Symptoms of an enlarged prostate include * a full bladder feeling even when the bladder is empty * pain when urinating * weak urinary stream * infertility * and sexual dysfunction. To relieve you of your symptoms, your doctor feels that you would benefit from a surgical procedure called TURP. TURP is designed to relieve symptoms by reducing the size of the prostate. It is also a diagnostic procedure. Tissue removed during a resection of the prostate or TURP is routinely screened for the presence of cancer. So make sure that you ask your doctor to carefully explain the reasons behind this recommendation.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH is a condition in which the prostate gland becomes enlarged and causes urination problems. The prostate gland, about the size of a walnut and weighing less than an ounce, surrounds the neck of a mans bladder and urethra – the tube that carries urine from the bladder. The prostate goes through two main periods of growth. In early puberty, it doubles in size. Then, around age 25, the prostate begins to grow again, continuing to enlarge throughout a mans life. The continuing enlargement typically does not usually cause problems until later in life. As the prostate enlarges, it presses on the urethra, interfering with urination. At the same time, the bladder wall becomes thicker and irritated and begins to contract causing more frequent urination. The bladder eventually weakens and does not empty completely, leaving urine behind. Pressure on the urethra by this leftover urine leads to BPH symptoms which include leaking or dribbling urine, more frequent urination especially at night, continued urgency to urinate, inability to urinate, and a weak or broken stream of urine. Because BPH symptoms may resemble those of cancer and other serious diseases, a physician should be consulted to make a diagnosis. Early diagnosis can help prevent complications such as incontinence, kidney or bladder damage, infection, and bladder stones. Besides medical history review and physical examination, diagnostic tests include the digital rectal exam (DRE …
