Minimally Invasive Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (MiLEP) Vs. HoLEP: Retrospective Analysis of Perioperative Outcomes in a Propensity Score‐Matched Cohort
Implementation of MiLEP is safe and feasible in a center with HoLEP experience, demonstrating comparable perioperative outcomes. The miniaturized approach maintains surgical efficiency across different prostate sizes while reducing instrument size. Further studies are necessary to evaluate long-term functional outcomes and confirm the potential benefits of MiLEP regarding urethral trauma.
