Zusammenfassung:	A 63-years-old male with symptomatic benign prostatic enlargement (220ml as estimated by transrectal ultrasonography) was underwent transurethral holmium laser enucleation. Total operative time was 211 minutes and actual weight of tissue enucleated was 156 grams. There was no perioperative hyponatremia and a blood transfusion. The duration of catheterization was 3 days and the hospital stay was 5 days. Three months after treatment, the international prostate symptom score (IPSS) decreased from 19 preoperatively to 1. The quality of life (QOL) index decreased from 6 preoperatively to 1, whilst the maximum flow rate (Qmax) increased from 7ml/sec preoperatively to 58ml/sec.
