I had a HoLEP in September 2020. Done by Dr. Krambeck in Chicago. Her and her team did a great job and I had a great result. Be aware that another complication of urine retention is kidney damage. If you are retaining urine, it can back up from your bladder into your kidneys--not good. That is what happened to me before getting the HoLEP. That took care of my retention issue, but the kidney damage is permanent. Important to have a bladder scan on regular basis to make sure you are emptying your bladder.
