Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate hyperplasia: technical aspects
Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) was first described by doctor P.J. Gilling et al. from New Zealand in 1996. The operation involves anatomical dissection of the prostatic tissue off the surgical capsule using a high-powered holmium laser
