Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Summary

This study will follow 400 men undergoing HoLEP surgery for an enlarged prostate to see if the percentage of tissue removed (enucleation ratio) predicts how much their symptoms improve after 3 months. Researchers aim to find the minimum ratio needed for meaningful relief, measured by a standard symptom score. The results could help surgeons tailor the procedure for better outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help surgeons determine the minimum amount of prostate tissue to remove for reliable symptom improvement after HoLEP surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly test a new therapy. Results may vary by surgeon technique and patient factors.
