PAE and TURP compared
TURP is the traditional surgical operation for an enlarged prostate. Prices for it differ between hospitals, so ask for an itemised quote. The clearest differences are in the treatment itself.
| TURP | PAE | |
|---|---|---|
| Anaesthesia | Spinal or general [1] | Local [1] |
| Adverse events in 12 weeks | 70 in the trial [1] | 36 in the trial [1] |
| Approach | Tissue is cut away through the urethra | Catheter through the wrist or groin, no cutting |

Will insurance cover PAE?
Cashless treatment can be arranged with major Indian health insurers and TPAs, and credit treatment is available for CGHS and Singareni beneficiaries. Whether your policy covers the procedure, and how much, is confirmed only after a policy check, so please carry your policy details and TPA card to the first visit. The care team handles the insurance approval and paperwork end to end.
Questions to ask before choosing
Bring your prostate ultrasound, PSA and urine flow reports, and ask:
- Am I a suitable candidate for PAE, given my prostate size and symptoms?
- What does the quote include and exclude?
- How many PAE procedures does the doctor perform?
- What is the plan if symptoms do not improve enough?
