AB  - Background: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) affects a significant proportion of aging men, causing lower urinary tract symptoms and decreased quality of life. Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) has emerged as a minimally invasive surgical treatment, with the enbloc technique representing a refinement of the procedure.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 60 patients who underwent Enbloc HoLEP at our institution. Patient characteristics, perioperative parameters, and clinical outcomes including American Urological Association Symptom Scores (AUASS), Quality of Life (QoL) scores, post-void residual volumes (PVR), and complication rates were assessed.Results: Mean patient age was 65.5 ± 9.1 years with mean prostate volume of 98.3 ± 34.7 cc. Following Enbloc HoLEP, AUASS significantly decreased from 23.3 ± 6.0 to 6.1 ± 2.0 (p

N2  - Arka plan: Benign prostat hiperplazisi (BPH) yaşlanan erkeklerin önemli bir bölümünü etkileyerek alt üriner sistem semptomlarına ve yaşam kalitesinde azalmaya neden olmaktadır. Prostatın Holmiyum Lazer Enükleasyonu (HoLEP) minimal invaziv bir cerrahi tedavi olarak ortaya çıkmıştır ve enblok teknik prosedürün geliştirilmiş halini temsil etmektedir.Yöntemler: Kurumumuzda Enblok HoLEP uygulanan 60 hastanın verilerini retrospektif olarak analiz ettik. Hasta özellikleri, perioperatif parametreler ve American Urological Association Symptom Scores (AUASS), Quality of Life (QoL) skorları, post-void rezidüel volüm (PVR) ve komplikasyon oranları dahil klinik sonuçlar değerlendirildi.Bulgular Ortalama hasta yaşı 65.5 ± 9.1 yıl ve ortalama prostat hacmi 98.3 ± 34.7 cc idi. Enblok HoLEP sonrası AUASS anlamlı olarak 23.3 ± 6.0'dan 6.1 ± 2.0'a (p
