Laser surgery has transformed the treatment of enlarged prostate — offering a virtually bloodless, highly effective alternative to conventional surgery that is particularly well-suited for men with large prostates, patients on blood-thinning medications, and those at higher surgical risk. Laser Prostate Surgery in Ahmedabad at Zydus Hospitals represents the most advanced surgical option available for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) — delivering excellent, durable results with minimal blood loss and faster recovery than any conventional surgical technique.
At Zydus Hospitals, Ahmedabad, Dr. Prarthan Joshi — a distinguished Urologist and Genitourinary Surgeon — offers state-of-the-art Laser Prostate Surgery in Ahmedabad using both HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) and GreenLight laser vaporisation — selecting the most appropriate technique for each patient based on prostate size, anatomy, and health status. His extensive experience in minimally invasive prostate surgery ensures world-class outcomes with the lowest possible complication rates.
Laser Prostate Surgery uses high-powered laser energy delivered through a thin fibre passed through the urethra to either vaporise or enucleate (remove whole) the obstructing prostate tissue — without any external skin incisions. The laser energy simultaneously cuts and seals blood vessels, making the procedure virtually bloodless and dramatically reducing the risk of transfusion that has historically been associated with conventional prostate surgery.
As a leading laser prostate surgeon in Ahmedabad, Dr. Prarthan Joshi offers both primary laser techniques — HoLEP for large prostates requiring complete adenoma removal, and GreenLight PVP for selective vaporisation in appropriate cases. The choice between techniques is made based on a thorough evaluation of each patient’s prostate volume, anatomy, health status, and anticoagulation needs. Laser Prostate Surgery in Ahmedabad at Zydus Hospitals is performed using the most advanced laser platforms — ensuring the safest and most effective treatment available.
A thorough evaluation by Dr. Prarthan Joshi confirms suitability and determines which laser technique delivers the best outcome for each individual patient’s specific prostate anatomy and health profile.
Laser energy seals blood vessels simultaneously during cutting — making prostate laser surgery essentially bloodless with near-zero transfusion risk.
The only prostate surgical option suitable for men who cannot safely stop blood-thinning medications — a critical advantage for many older patients.
HoLEP can treat prostates of any size — including very large glands over 150-200 mL — where conventional TURP would be insufficient.
Shorter catheter time, briefer hospital stay, and faster return to full activity compared to conventional open or TURP prostate surgery.
HoLEP has the lowest long-term retreatment rates of any BPH surgical procedure — often described as a single lifetime treatment for prostate enlargement.
For men with large prostates, those on blood thinners, or those seeking the most durable prostate surgery available — Laser Prostate Surgery in Ahmedabad by Dr. Prarthan Joshi at Zydus Hospitals is the gold standard choice.
Dr. Prarthan Joshi offers both primary laser prostate surgical techniques at Zydus Hospitals, Ahmedabad — selecting the most appropriate approach for each patient based on prostate size, anatomy, and clinical priorities:
Every recommendation is made based on a thorough clinical assessment — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
- Holmium laser enucleation removing the entire prostate adenoma — the most durable laser option, size-independent and suitable for the largest prostates with the lowest retreatment rates available.
- Advanced bipolar resection — the gold standard for moderate-sized prostates (30-80mL) with excellent outcomes, minimal blood loss, and 10-15 year durability.
- Photoselective vaporisation using KTP/LBO laser — virtually bloodless, day-case procedure ideal for moderate prostates and patients on anticoagulants who cannot stop blood thinners.
- Alpha-blockers and 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for mild-moderate BPH not requiring surgical intervention — prescribed and monitored with structured follow-up by Dr. Joshi.
Both are excellent procedures — the best choice depends on prostate size and patient factors. Bipolar TURP remains the gold standard for moderate-sized prostates (30-80mL). Laser surgery — particularly HoLEP — is preferred for very large prostates, patients on anticoagulants, and those seeking the most durable long-term outcome. Dr. Prarthan Joshi discusses both options transparently and recommends the most appropriate technique for each individual patient.
Yes — and this is one of the most significant advantages of laser prostate surgery. GreenLight laser in particular can be performed in patients who cannot safely stop anticoagulant medications, due to its virtually bloodless nature. Dr. Prarthan Joshi carefully manages anticoagulation in coordination with the patient physician to ensure the safest possible laser prostate surgery in Ahmedabad for every high-risk patient.
Most patients undergoing HoLEP Laser Prostate Surgery in Ahmedabad are discharged within 1-2 days. The urinary catheter is typically removed within 24-48 hours. Most men return to desk work within 1-2 weeks and full normal activity within 4-6 weeks. Symptom improvement — stronger flow, complete emptying, better sleep — is typically noticed within the first 2-4 weeks following surgery.
Yes — HoLEP is specifically designed to treat prostates of any size, including very large glands over 100-150mL where conventional TURP would be insufficient or unsafe. HoLEP removes the entire obstructing adenoma regardless of prostate volume, making it the preferred option for large prostate treatment in Ahmedabad. Dr. Joshi evaluates each patient prostate volume by ultrasound before recommending the appropriate surgical approach.
