In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Surgical treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are necessary when non-procedural approaches fail to alleviate lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) or bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). Open simple prostatectomy and laser enucleation are recommended for prostatic adenoma size greater than 80 ml. Minimally invasive approaches, such as robotic-assisted simple prostatectomy, have gained popularity due to their comparable outcomes with lower morbidity. The introduction of the da Vinci single-port (SP) robotic platform offers potential advantages, but its outcomes have not been thoroughly investigated. This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the outcomes of SP simple prostatectomy performed using the da Vinci robotic platform versus thulium laser enucleation of the prostate for the treatment of BPH and BOO.
