[Surgical treatment of benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) in patients under anticoagulation: a review of the bleeding risks of established techniques].

CONCLUSION: According to current data, transurethral laser vaporization and enucleation of the prostate are the treatment of choice for patients under anticoagulation; however, other transurethral techniques, such as BipoLEP have an acceptable risk of bleeding and can be an alternative depending on local resources. Newer minimally invasive approaches could become more important in the future. PMID: 32930822 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
