Transurethral needle ablation can be used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). [4] Some clinical studies have reported that TUNA is safe and effective, improving the urine flow with minimal side effects when compared with other procedures, such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and open prostatectomy.
Transurethral needle ablation (TUNA) operates with a different type of energy, radio frequency (RF) energy, but is designed along the same premise as TUMT devices, that the heat the device generates will cause necrosis of the prostatic tissue and shrink the prostate. The TUNA device is inserted into the urethra using a rigid scope much like a ...
The American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines for the treatment of BPH from 2018 stated that TUMT may be offered to patients provided they are informed that it is associated with a higher risk of necessary retreatment compared to TURP. [6] The European Association of Urology (EAU) has – as of 2019 – removed TUMT from its guidelines. [7]

Bipolar TURP: This is a newer technique that uses bipolar current to remove the tissue. Bipolar TURP allows saline irrigation and eliminates the need for an ESU grounding pad thus preventing post-TURP hyponatremia (TUR syndrome) and reducing other complications. As a result, bipolar TURP is also not subject to the same surgical time constraints ...
