The impact of laser energy on functional outcome following Holmium Laser Enucleation of the prostate

To assess the impact of total laser energy applied, as well as enucleation efficiency on short term functional outcomes for patients treated for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) with Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP). A retrospective analysis of 1593 consecutive patients who under...

Zusammenfassung:	To assess the impact of total laser energy applied, as well as enucleation efficiency on short term functional outcomes for patients treated for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) with Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP). A retrospective analysis of 1593 consecutive patients who underwent HoLEP for LUTS due to BPO in a tertiary care centre between January 2018 and January 2021was performed. Perioperative parameters and short-term functional outcome were evaluated. Spearman’s rank correlation and linear regression analysis was applied to identify the relationship between total laser energy applied or enucleation efficiency and functional outcome (p
