Prostatitis surgery

Drug treatment for prostatitis cannot achieve a radical cure, and the problem of recurrence exists, so surgical treatment has become a gradually accepted method. There are three main surgical methods now, traditional surgery, minimally invasive surgery and laser surgery. Traditional surgery is very risky and may cause men to lose their sexual function, so it has been gradually eliminated. Currently, the most widely used is minimally invasive surgery, and laser surgery is currently a growing and developing method, which has not shaken the status of minimally invasive surgery.

1. Traditional surgery. In some areas where medical technology is relatively backward, traditional surgery is still used to treat prostatitis. Traditional surgery does have a good therapeutic effect on prostatitis, but the higher the risk of surgery, if you are not careful, it is very likely to cause men to completely lose their sexual function. Therefore, traditional surgery for prostatitis is gradually being replaced by minimally invasive surgery.

Second, minimally invasive surgery. Minimally invasive surgery is an emerging surgical treatment for prostatitis. Compared with traditional surgery, the biggest advantage of minimally invasive surgery is that the surgical accident rate is low. Even if the surgery is not successful, it will not affect the male's sexual function. Therefore, many hospitals are currently using minimally invasive surgery to treat prostatitis.

3. Laser surgery. Laser surgery similar to Zhiyuan peptide technology can be regarded as a conservative treatment for prostatitis. Laser surgery for prostatitis does not actually have much advantage, except that it does not require surgery, so it will not cause any pain, and after the laser surgery, it will not have side effects on other parts of the body. However, the effect of laser surgery on prostatitis is very limited, especially for chronic prostatitis, which is difficult to cure through laser surgery. Moreover, the unit price of laser surgery is relatively high, and some patients need to undergo multiple surgeries and still cannot cure prostatitis.

Surgical treatment can be used for recurrent chronic bacterial prostatitis. Prostatectomy can achieve the goal of cure, but it should be used with caution. Because prostatitis usually affects the peripheral zone of the gland, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is difficult to achieve the goal of treatment. TURP can remove prostate stones and bacterial infection lesions near the prostate ducts, which helps to reduce the reinfection of peripheral zone lesions.
