First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at men with urinary retention who need a catheter before having prostate laser surgery (HoLEP, ThuLEP, or ThuFLEP). Researchers want to see if the length of time with a catheter affects how well the surgery works. They will measure changes in urinary symptoms, flow rate, and leftover urine. The goal is to find the best timing for surgery to improve recovery.

Active substance
Laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP, ThuLEP, or ThuFLEP)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors determine the best timing for prostate laser surgery in men who need a catheter, potentially improving recovery and urinary function.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It looks at past data, not a controlled experiment, so it cannot prove cause and effect.
