High-power vs low-power HOLEP for large prostates
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study compares two surgical settings (high power versus low power) during a prostate procedure called HOLEP to see which is safer and works better for people with a large prostate. If you need surgery for an enlarged prostate, this trial may help improve how the procedure is done.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a large prostate and have been told surgery is needed
- You do not have prostate cancer
- You have never had recurrent (returning) prostate growths treated before
- You do not have nerve or bladder control problems that could affect results (like a neurogenic bladder)

This trial compares two minimally invasive surgeries to treat a very enlarged prostate (BPH) when medicines are not enough. It aims to see which approach gives better relief for men with large prostates.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for treating an enlarged prostate (BPH) when medication hasn't worked. It looks at which method—bipolar TURP or bipolar enucleation—may be safer and more effective for men with moderate to severe symptoms.
This study compares two different laser technologies used during a minimally invasive prostate surgery called HoLEP. You'll be randomly assigned to one laser type and asked to complete brief surveys online after your procedure to help doctors understand which works best for reducing urinary symptoms.
This trial compares two common surgical methods for men with bothersome urinary symptoms due to an enlarged prostate. It aims to find which approach gives better relief with fewer side effects.
This trial tests two different surgical approaches using a laser to treat an enlarged prostate. The study compares whether one technique reduces complications and improves outcomes better than the other.
This study compares three different surgical laser techniques to treat benign prostate enlargement (BPH) that causes severe urinary symptoms and hasn't improved with medication. The goal is to find which method is safest and works best for large prostates.
