“…In our series, the meantime for enucleation of the prostate was 28.38 ± 6.61 (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40) min. The detached adenoma pushed into the bladder as a whole or dissected into lobes to facilitate easy and quick retrieval by the minimally invasive approach, which significantly saved the morcellating time when we use TUEP, HOLEP or even by simple open prostatectomy and leads to avoiding water poisoning and the incidence of TUR syndrome as there will be a short time enucleation period.…”

“…The mean size of the prostate measured by MRI/US was 266.16 ± 89.1 (169-405) mL. The mean total operation time was 70.5 ± 10.9 (60-90) min, while the mean enucleation time was 28.38 ± 6.61 (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40) min. The mean intraoperative blood loss was 193.33 ± 19.66 (170-220) mL.…”

“…There have been recent reports in which the giant BPH has been resected by laparoscopy and transurethral electrovaporization. 5 , 6 Although these procedures have a steep learning curve and require expertise, there has been an expected increase in the trend. This will improve the outcome of the patient in terms of morbidity and further reduction in mortality.…”

“…Kawamura et al [1] refers a giant prostate to any prostate hypertrophy (generally benign) exceeding 200 gm; while others have defined this limit to be above 500 gm [2]. Others have managed such cases by open surgery [3] and transurethral electrovaporisation [5]. Recently, robot-assisted laparoscopic retropubic prostatectomy has been reported [8][9][10], for an average size prostate too.…”

“…Massive enlargement of the prostate has been reported in the literature [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Traditionally, such cases have been managed by open surgical prostatectomy but these are now also being managed in a minimally invasive manner by using the laparoscopic and robot-assisted laparoscopic approach to simple prostatectomy.…”
