Everybody wish a less invasive surgical procedure applied at Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). We evaluated the results of TUIP application at our clinic to 14 cases with BPH Identification in point of objective measures (Uroflovvmetry), subjective measures (Symptom score) and sexual function. Average age of 14 cases subjected to TUIP was 54.8 and average observation period was 35.5 months. İn ali cases pre and postoperative symptom score (IPSS) and uroflovvmetry data have been evaluated and compared. A reduction in the symptom score has been observed after the TUIP. Maximum urine flovv rate increased from 9.8 ml/sec to 14.3 ml/sec at sixth month. Post-operative retrograde ejaculation has been observed in only one patient. Although recovery rates vvere lovv as compared to TURP, TUIP was evaluated to be an effective method in obstruction therapy at carefully selected patients.
