This article reviews the prostatic urethral lift (PUL) and its potential benefits and risks compared with transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). TURP is the traditional procedure for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and is associated with ejaculatory and erectile dysfunction. PUL is a minimally invasive option, but its efficacy has not been well studied. A literature review indicates that both procedures should be afforded equal consideration, and both have limitations. Further long-term research is needed to establish if PUL is superior to TURP.
