Transurethral resection of prostate is the gold standard operation for bladder outflow obstruction due to benign prostatic enlargement. However, catheter removal day is variable. The objective of this study is to compare early and delayed catheter removal groups in terms of, urinary retention after catheter removal, length of hospital stay, weight of resected prostate, duration of resection, peri-operative blood transfusion, and postoperative complications.
