Surgical repair of the prostate typically refers to procedures aimed at treating conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostate cancer, or traumatic injury to the prostate. Common surgical techniques include transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), prostatectomy (partial or radical removal of the prostate), and laser therapy. These surgeries aim to alleviate symptoms, remove cancerous tissue, or restore function. The choice of procedure depends on the specific condition and the patient's overall health.
