  • + Diagnosis of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph) (prostate enlargement)

    €2099.00
  • + Treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph) by Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP)

    €11829.00

    It is a minimally invasive procedure that is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). During TUMT, a special device is inserted into the urethra and guided to the prostate gland. The device emits microwave energy that heats and destroys excess prostate tissue, which can improve urine flow and relieve symptoms of BPH.

  • + Treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph) by Transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP)

    €11840.00

    Transurethral incision of the prostate (TUIP): This procedure involves making one or two small incisions in the prostate gland to relieve pressure on the urethra and improve urine flow. TUIP is typically performed under local anesthesia.

  • + Treatment of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (bph) by Open prostatectomy

    €12003.00

    This surgery involves making an incision in the lower abdomen to remove the prostate gland. Open prostatectomy is usually reserved for very large prostates or if other surgical options are not feasible.
