Prostate Surgery Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction Study
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study compares two surgical techniques for enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH) to see which one works better and how satisfied patients are afterward. If you have moderate prostate enlargement and urinary symptoms, this trial might help improve your treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two laser surgery methods to treat an enlarged prostate. It aims to see which one better preserves urinary control and sexual function while reducing the chance of a narrowed urethra.
This study looks at whether the amount of prostate tissue removed during a laser procedure called HoLEP can predict how much your urinary symptoms improve. It may help doctors better plan and personalize treatment for enlarged prostate.
This study looks at how urinary flow tests and symptom questionnaires help doctors decide if surgery is right for men with urinary symptoms. It may help you understand your treatment options.
This trial compares two ways to remove prostate tissue in men with an enlarged prostate (BPH). It tests if cutting out the tissue (enucleation) works better than shaving it down (resection) to improve urine flow and symptoms.
This study compares two minimally invasive procedures that remove extra prostate tissue to help with urination problems. It may help if other treatments haven't worked.
This study compares two types of anesthesia for a prostate surgery called HoLEP, which removes excess prostate tissue to improve urine flow. The goal is to see if one type leads to better recovery or fewer side effects.
