"The aim is to remove the prostatic adenoma by enucleation, i.e. to pass through the plane between the adenoma and the prostatic capsule, as opposed to resection, which also consists of removing the adenoma, but by making small cuts in the prostatic tissue, without necessarily reaching this anatomical plane between the adenoma and the capsule. This means removing less adenoma and therefore increasing the risk of adenomatous regrowth in the long term or obtaining worse results than enucleation in the short to medium term.~The other advantage of using this approach is that it reduces intra- and post-operative bleeding and does not require the systematic discontinuation of anti-aggregating or anticoagulant treatments prior to the operation. The field of indications is thus potentially enlarged."
