Popis: Introduction: Bipolar transurethral resection (B-TURP) is an effective modality for surgery of Benign Prostatic Obstruction, and has been widely studied for its efficacy and safety against the well-established method; Monopolar Transurethral resection (M-TURP). Objectives: The study aimed to assess the feasibility of B-TURP over M-TURP in terms of hospital stay, resection time, resected tissue volume, changes in hemoglobin and sodium, blood transfusion required, complications like TUR syndrome, clot retention and hemorrhagic episodes. Methodology: An analytical study was done in cases who underwent TURP from August 2018 to August 2020. Parameters like hospital stay, resection time, resected tissue volume, changes in hemoglobin and sodium, blood transfusion required, complications like TUR syndrome, clot retention and hemorrhagic episodes were compared in between B-TURP and M-TURP. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 22.0 software. Results: Seventy-three patients were compared in this study; 33 had undergone B-TURP and 40 patients had undergone M-TURP. Total hospital stay was slightly lesser in B-TURP. The post-operative Hb in M-TURP was significantly lesser than B-TURP (11.10±1.321 vs 12.24±1.225, P
