Laser Prostatectomy Cost in Hyderabad: Complete Guide 2026

Laser prostatectomy is a modern, minimally invasive treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) that uses high‑energy laser to remove obstructive prostate tissue. It is especially beneficial for men with large prostates, those on blood thinners, or those seeking the fastest recovery. Techniques like Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) and Thulium Laser (ThuLEP) offer excellent outcomes with less bleeding, shorter catheter time, and lower recurrence rates. At Vivekananda Hospital, Dr. Arun Rathi and Dr. Surya Prakash B perform laser prostatectomy using state‑of‑the‑art equipment, ensuring safety and precision. This guide provides a transparent breakdown of laser prostatectomy costs in Hyderabad, compares it with TURP, and explains what to expect before and after surgery.

📌 Quick Facts: Laser prostatectomy cost in Hyderabad ranges from ₹85,000 to ₹1,40,000 at Vivekananda Hospital (all‑inclusive). Hospital stay is 1‑2 days, catheter for 1‑2 days. It is the preferred treatment for large prostates (> 80 cc) and patients on blood thinners.

What is Laser Prostatectomy and When is it Used?

Laser prostatectomy uses a laser fiber passed through a cystoscope to precisely remove excess prostate tissue. The two main types are:

  • HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate): The laser cuts and removes tissue like a surgeon’s finger, leaving the prostate capsule intact. It is the gold standard for large glands.
  • ThuLEP (Thulium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate): Similar to HoLEP but with a different wavelength, offering excellent hemostasis and a slightly faster learning curve.

Ideal for:

  • Large prostates (> 80 cc) that are not suitable for TURP
  • Patients on blood thinners (aspirin, clopidogrel, warfarin) who cannot stop them
  • Men with very bothersome symptoms or complications like urinary retention, recurrent infections
  • Those who want the lowest recurrence rates and fastest recovery

Not suitable for:

  • Patients with active urinary tract infection (must be treated first)
  • Men with small prostates (< 30 cc) where TURP or other office procedures may be adequate

Your urologist will help determine if laser prostatectomy is the best option based on your prostate size, medical history, and preferences.

  • Fasting: No food or drink for 6‑8 hours before the procedure.
  • Bowel preparation: An enema may be given before surgery.
  • Antibiotics: Prophylactic antibiotics are given to prevent infection.
  • Arrival: Bring your insurance card and a family member to drive you home.

Recovery After Laser Prostatectomy

Day of procedure: 1‑2 hours, recovery room, catheter placed. Hospital stay 1‑2 days.

Week 1‑2: Return to desk work. Avoid heavy lifting, straining, and sexual activity for 4 weeks.
Week 4‑6: Full recovery; noticeable improvement in urinary flow.

Retrograde ejaculation occurs in most men after laser prostatectomy, which is harmless. Erectile function is preserved.

  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water to flush the bladder.
