  • To' weatherboi: you Are right, thank you for your comment . Let me now ask you a question: how am i suppose to' pronounce 'prostate'? Can you teach me please sir? Since I am Greek and 'prostate' is a greek word, as almost all the other Medical terms, your advice and wisdom would be great! As it would be' great listening to' you pronouncing in perfect greek the word 'prostatis'.

  • To' drope76: sori for the delayed answer. It is Bryan Enno music, great album dedicated to' the moon.

  • The only solution to that problem is to balance very well the pros and contras. In my opinion the key is the doctor patient communication. The patient must be well informed. The surgeon has to talk extensively to the patient about the effects, advantages, disadvantages and how to deal with them

  • Reply To crookhunter: The operation resolves many problems caused by the prostatic hyperplasia and enlargement. Still though one of the probable functional consequences is the anejaculation. This doesn't mean erectile dysfunction nor anorgasmia. It means that the sperm doesn't go out of the urethra but it goes in the bladder.

  • It does regenerate because the prostatic hyperplasia is a process that doesn't stop after the operation. The operation removes the enlarged tissue, but if the operation is complete and correct, then probably there won't be any problems, since the regenerated tissue needs many years to become big enough to create again problems.

  • Chaotic resection, no landmarks used, resection being shifted from left to right. That prostate had at least 60-80 cc, only 40 removed. Anyway, the patient will feel good now and the dr will have to operate again in 2-3 years, telling the patient the adenoma reccured. HO, ho, ho

  • To cody1: the aim of theis video, if you didn't get it, is educational, not accademical. Peaople that are not specialists can have an idea of how the prostate looks like and what happens during the operation. For your personal information: this is the 5th year that the gentleman had the operation and he feels great, no need for further treatment. Anyway, why don't you make a TURp, film it and show it to us? Thanks for the comment.

  • Best TURP video on you tube...excellent job!!

  • What, if any are the possible & eventual problems with this surgery? Can there be blood in the urine again some years later?

  • Like all surgeries I'll bet that hurts! :( especially due to the fact it's all done through the penis. Males have as much problems as us females!
